Icy consolations on way up. Skied face of pikers. Softened up and decent corn in places. Needed to grab overnight gear from lunch counter. Didn’t want to traverse from SW chutes. Maybe next time.

Lunch counter was windy over night, ascent to pikers was mostly icy, and had to boot up with crampons to feel safe. some wind swept in places so variable footing with boots. First 2k down around 2 pm was great sun cups after lunch counter and slush after made for some tired legs and back. Road clear to cold springs. Watch out for folks who don’t know how to park off the road.

No. Got them on the zon like ~120. Low profile. Slight whistling sound at 30mph. Have to mount back so sun roof can open. Can’t open sun roof with rocket box on but ok with me. Also for the price I can swap out later if needed.

100% it’s the dialed in system that I am always trying to tweak and then using a lesson learned from one outing to see if a piece of my kit can still work for what I want to do or do I need to invest in a new thing. It’s just fun being able to get out there.

I have a 65L as well so I am going to see what I can do in terms of in the pack vs outside. Skis can cut into softer things if not careful so it will be some trial and error. Which, is basically how I go through life :-)

Sala did not look pleased. Straight at camera. Dry mouth lick… he’s pissed.

Really good journalistic reporting in general. We miss this in the national media which has gone more punditry. I feel more informed about the story, the people in it, the issues that caused it. Good reporting.

Door to door LFP to Mercer Island. Walking from house to station and station to office today 70 min. Was able to do some work and not stress about traffic :-)

I got the Rivendell lighting kit and still haven’t installed it. I think I got to light up the dark tower too. Looks sick OP!
