“Holy cow!”…is all I have to say about this.
(Via

and

Motoneige 0 – Montagne 1
helment cams are AWESOME!!!!
who knew you could use out-of-control slednecking to practice glissade technique
Steve!! Can you Name That Couloir?
Note to self: let the sled roll to the bottom.
I’m afraid that this guy has the right to vote too.
AKWY…having a hard time of it. i want to say it’s up on togwotee…and my first guess would be bottleneck couloir. but i don’t think that is correct.
is it in wyoming? hint?
I was thinking Tog too though I don’t know, I tend to stay away from sled zones…for such reasons as evidenced by this video! And I would imagine it’s NOT on your hit list, just thought it was time for another NTC installment! Anyone else have a guess??
the sled is already toast and he still try,s to stop it at risk to life and limb, is this an I. Q. test?
LOL. That’s not English they’re speaking.
Not Togwotee. Looks like Norway or AK to me.
I dont know about Ak or Norway. But the diagonal or the dogleg should have ALOT more dead trees in the valley below.
I watched this again, and that’s one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. Trying to get crushed by your own sled. Aaaah!
Then again, I tried to keep my own (non-parking-braked) car from rolling into the CO river once. Saved by a conveniently-placed phone pole.
I think you get hopped up on adrenaline and you’re just not thinking straight.
here’s the view from the top.
He got Sonned!
What is it they drink over there?
Sledging in not legal in Norway, except in the far north. Anyway, the stones seem way too red to be in Norway.
Sorry, most read the whole thread…didn’t see that it was Greenland.
you guys crack me up. thinking that the J-hole is the center of the effing universe.
It doesn’t look like Tog, but maybe dude.
There are no trees. Yet, it could still be the dogleg….. haha
Yeah.
Finally a fool proof stability test.
notas…actually, togwotee isn’t part of j-hole…dude.
Wow. I was hoping he’d get back on and try again. :-0
I think it is Tog.
How do we know the accents and vernacular of the people in the video are authentic? We don’t.
How do we know that the word “Greenland” is authentic? We don’t.
Finally, how do we even know that the treeless non-Tog looking basin is authentic? We don’t.
That shit is all made up. It’s Tog.
The Donald knows what’s up and he will prove its Tog.
I agree with Notas, Tog is part of the Jhole.
This does prove one relavent point, these sledders are equally stupid to their counterparts all over the world.
The second video is funnier with the other guys bumsliding down the couloir after the wreck. Shure looks like Greenland to me if you pause the second video at the end an check out the fjord below right. That is unless the Missisippi has flooded Jackson and wiped out all the trees 😉
Steve,
Thanks for straightening out the fact that togs isn’t in J-hole. It is quite close to the center of the universe, and a helluva lot closer than effing Greenland.
Ya’all should laugh at yourselves for thinking those WYO sledheads would note the score in French on the video. haha. Motoniege. motoniege. haha
greenland was my second guess. 😎
@notas – Greenland isn’t part of j-hole, but it wants to be and we’re reviewing its application.
Since there is no law against stupidity they should be arrested for littering! Not to mention screwing up a great ski line!

[…] under him. The second takes place in Radio Tower Couloir on Togwotee Pass. I remember when I posted this video, and guessed that is was maybe on Togwotee. Seems like it was only a matter of time. Since some […]
Wow, so many opinions about adventure. You would think the types of people(adventurists) that follow this site would have a bit more respect for those having fun with risk. The risks are the same as skiing and snowboarding. So if there was a parachuting video would you call that person “Stupid”? Many of us motor user’s respect the work you put into enjoying your sport. Could we get a little back? Let’s get along and use responsibly together. It’s all about education. Stop acting like congress, please. Freaks me out when people tell me how to use, or not use, the resources I so ardently worked for.
Braap.
The hatred towards j-holers is amazing! You would think that we are terrorists or something. Is it jealousy?
rocks climbers call that trundling! except we often 1. never push a rock on our mate. 2. never try to stop it.
we don’t put gas in the rocks either.
i’ll get the SPORTS cam out next time we toss minerals.
you’d thought they paid real live money for that rock.
