It’s always colder on the lake.

Our dogleg couloir is hidden in the rocks and little cruxy at the bottom.
Not knowing if it goes…we boot up a wider line to the right.

Awesome! First shot is great.
Nice photos man…curious as to what the total length of that tour ended up being? Roughly…
thanks smokey. about 14.5 miles and 5000′ vert gain/loss…CTC.
looks like u gave up using ski breaks.
do u lock the toe all the way going down, or do u use a leash instead?
Siiiiiiick
alex…locked and loaded…no brakes, no leashes.
Sweet! We looked at those couloirs when we skied around that burn area a month or so ago. We figured you guys had probably skied them. Looks like you had a lot better snow than we had in the burn. Guess we should’ve waited a month.
i’ve been told this may have been a first descent.
Very nice pics…!
