partial burial, 2 guys on a slope is not advisable ...

when I see this, I go play in the trees ...

Need to send them to an avy course. Classic poor choice on that face with rock out croppings.

not the greatest pic ...

but one of the greatest rides !!!



last year it took us 2 weeks of hard work on foot to get here.
this year 9 guys, 9 sleds and 1 girl worked hard and we got to the alpine in about 10 hours !!!
however, at 7pm there was only rodgers, BCAV and myself still pulling up the last creek.
we call this big alpine meadow "the golf course" coz thats how sweet it is ...

even the 05 yamy vector travels with ease in these conditions ...



ridge riding is not for everyone ...





some guys fail ridge riding ...



thankfully the ratbaggers are all to familure with sled recovery ...

the 270hp nitro has slight bends in its rails ...

I can't imagine why ???



sundy 7th march was sweeeeet up at 2600m ...

the peak in the back ground is 2750m ...



so we pushed for the ridge at 2700m ...

rodgers on a 2014freeride took 5 atempts to get it...

my 2006 rt1000 with a 152 track got it first pull ...


we think his freeride aint set up rite ...

twas a tad windy up there ... but great views !!!



peak on rite is 2850m ...

I reeeeeaaaaally like this bowl !!!

last season some du0chebag on here said it looked like high risk low reward ... thats great, I here revy is really deep at mo ...



so we played it til it was tracked out then moved on to another virgin bowl ...




well we did about 20 pulls each ...

no slides, no cracks, no crust, no rock strikes ...
