Only pictures of the climbing....the descent was just too fun to get the camera out! |
Sorry, I know it isn't biking related....but you have to love the snow if you live in Reno. The back country was amazing this weekend as long as you were careful of the avalanche dangers. Our group skied Rabbit Ears for three laps with waist deep powder and powder over your head at every turn! Best skiing I've had in years.
I ducked out a little early and the remainder of the crew skied one more lap on Proletariat (higher angle bowl)....and that's where the scary stuff happened. While I napped in the van, one of the folks in our group took a little higher angle run than the rest. He triggered a really big slide that caught him, sluiced him through some trees, and partially buried him. Any way you look at it....he got really lucky.
So, get out and have some snowy fun....but be careful when you do it!
