April 17, 2012
Lines that are usually too full of gaper-eating-krumholz to hold snow….were actually still too full of gaper-eating-krumholz (and gapers)
Lines that are usually too flat to hold snow, somehow got filled in by this spring storm.
And last, but not least, lines that are usually too steep to hold snow, somehow got filled in by this spring storm.

Greg
wrote on April 18th, 2012 at 9:44 amthanks man… I hear Ullr likes splashes of PBR… go up to your closest patch of snow and splash it with some PBR… then wash your car…and be sure those snow tires are OFF

wrote on April 18th, 2012 at 1:56 pmAwesome. Just awesome. The only thing not awesome about this TR is the fact that just a few pixels away from each click to the next page, I was forced to stare at photos of Icebreaker Brief man. I am scarred forever and probably won’t be able to hike Mansfield ever again without thinking of a guys crotch. Ick.
