TR: MRG and MTW 12/17-12/19

[Contra]

Working backwards, went up to MTW yesterday, the weather and snow conditions were not terrible.

[Contra]

Tough to take a bad picture on a day like this...

kinda funny.... we must have been withing snowball's distance of each other all weekend

agree about yesterday... light was supreb all day with the sun so low on the horizon... add a sick undercast and contrasty mountains... crazy

i think you are one of the guys noah talked to yesterday. sorry i didnt come over and say hi. didn't realize you were trying to hail us, and i was trying to save elevation/speed in the opposite direction.

[Contra]

Even saw some friends who looked like they knew what they were doing.

Greg - as soon as we saw the Xterra I knew we were on the right track. Talked to Noah for a few minutes, great running into you guys, almost like meeting a celebrity. Almost.

No worries, cool running into you guys and hope to see you again soon. If nothing else it means we're doing something right. Tell Noah thanks for the heads up, definitely helped point us in the right direction (and steer us away from a very wrong one).

[Contra]

MRG - also, did not suck.









Didnt get any pictures of the down (busy choking on snow), but we got some video footage that we're editing. Wasnt great unless you like 8-12" of untracked goodness from top to bottom.

Nice... those are some really cool shots of us. I still cannot believe just how awesome the light/clouds were.

Glad you guys had a great day up there. Making another trip up sometime soon I hope?

Still cant get over how well everything turned out. I'm in full on depression mode now though, i spent at least half of my workday looking through my pictures and the FIS shots.

Absolutely going back up as soon as I can, but you'll probably get there before me since Im coming from Philly.
