There are a lot of places besides the Exum hut on the lower saddle to bivy and climb. Those 4 1/2 million visitors make it extremely easy to make money here.

AstroPax wrote: Am I supposed to be impressed? No. You are supposed to be skiing this fabulous snow since the Pineapple Express set up. I do. Up to my knees in the back country. South east aspects are bonding. I'm not jumping into any steep north facing aspects for a while. Route finding and familiarity with the terrain are paying off. The tourists are well advised to hire a guide this weekend. -- According to John Perry Barlow, "Jeff Davis is a truly gifted trouble-maker." |

I love where I live. I have no desire to live in an isolated ski town with a bunch of mountain freaks: I find them shallow and self-absorbed.

You will find a robust discussion of sublimation on pages 47 and 161 in McClung and Schaerer's _The_Avalanche_Handbook_. Buried surface hoar is depth hoar. That's Newcomb's take on it, (Rod, not Mark, albeit the younger Newcomb shares that contention). Sucrosic is an adjective that describes loose, unconsolodated crystals as appearing like sugar. I've stuck my fist in a layer of loose, unconsolodated, snow crystals, buried under hard, consolidated snow slab. Whatever, but you don't know **** about the triple point of water. Or, it appears, snowpack or thermodynamics. 0 degrees C. Interesting that you bring that up since the vapor pressure differential drives subliminal recrysalization. Did you know that the saturation vapor pressure, (with respect to ice), in the pore space of a snowpack increases by more than 300% as air temperature increases from -15 to 0 degrees C? You don't give a **** what the most experienced ski guides say. You don't give a **** about snow pits. You skin into obscurity. Fine. Arrogance has lead many to ski off into oblivion. Any time you want to demonstrate your obtuse ignorance, I'm more than happy to avail you the opportunity. Try to have fun klaus. -- According to John Perry Barlow, "Jeff Davis is a truly gifted trouble-maker." |

I like days like today when the powder is blowing between my legs giving me a hard on underneath my Mountain Hardwear Windstopper Tech pants and my Mountian Hardwear FTX Ultra Gore-Tex XCR on top. Then I have to ski with my dick poking me in the belly button. Today was a good day in the back country. The Avalanche Hazard was high. The visibility was poor. Didn't see any tourists out there snooping around. Everybody I saw was geared up and ready. No body skied or rode over the top of me. The slough got outragous racing me down the fall line. Yep. It was a Woody day alright. -- According to John Perry Barlow, "Jeff Davis is a truly gifted trouble-maker." |

I assume his knowledge of "snow dynamics" ensues from treating victims of the dreaded "Ski pants crotch split under strain on a deep snow day Doc - help!" syndrome? I take it you get right coast babes in stretch pants out there in Kreitlerville too. Or is is Squallywood, isn't that Heavenly. A day at the beach! Getting deep in the "Hole."
