thanks for a great day gang. back on the mountain today, beautiful day....35 degrees on the thermometer Mark. i'll agree with the above, scree-skiing the bowl today wasn't the same without the entertainment!

I went to the presentation at A16 Friday, and it was remarkably different from one at REI the previous week. Much more informative and helpful, Kurt makes things a lot easier to understand, and made sure to mention taking long walks as preparation.
The other one I visited consisted of a guy telling everyone what they had to do in order to reach the summit. Biggest thing was to run at least 30 miles a week starting right now.
I've hardly ever run and still managed to summit a few times...
