Posted these in the sticky thread above, just thought I would get them some "airtime" here as well...
Resort and backcountry snowboarding in Colorado...
Sorry for the name in the last pic. My friend takes them for me and likes to tag his name to the good ones...
Next is Arches National Park... did about 14 miles of primitive trail hiking. great day.
Thats my RC-4 on my hip in the pic above, though its hard to see...
I climbed up a short rock face to get a look around from the top of a sandstone fin... coming back down was a bit sketchy. That slickrock is angling away from my landing spot and towards a 30 foot crevasse. The only place I had a good foothold was from well above where I'm perched, and I eventually had to jump from it down to my pack. Probably about a 14-15 foot drop. Very sketchy indeed. The friend I had there taking pictures was nervous, but laughed it off by saying that if I had fallen and died at least he would have had it well documented!
Sorry if having these posted in two places is a bad thing... just thought everyone would like a look at them.
