After dropping in off the saddle between Damon and Sentinel, Christy's final run of the trip finished down the Shoestring, back to the hut.

  • It’s unanimous Ted, your already advanced photography skills are improving. Having great skiers and scenery sure helps. The skins photo is cool. Glad you got some vis.

    Thanks John. Like I’ve said before, if you take a lot you’ll get at few. I think I shot 1200 photos.

  • Looks great. Man, I didn’t see powder like that all last winter. NOAA says things should be back to normal next winter.

  • Sweet Pictures Dude!
    I like you ColoRadicals! We’ll remember you! Good to see you right out on another trip. Swing by the Kootenays when youre ready to slow things down a bit C~. Love to have you guys through for some biking!

    Who knew skins were so fashionable?
    Vineyard vines should get in on that action.
    ;)

    Pete, thanks for the invite. If we don’t make it we’ll just have to get by thinking back to Joey in his blue ski sweater and your “bring me the heli-machine” quote. So funny.
    Super fun out there. Great to meet you guys.

    Lizzie,
    I had to Google that. “Preppy clothing and Mens Ties” makes me think back to Christy’s first pair of skins that had colored striped down their length, we called them the “Brooks Brothers” suspenders.
