After a few weeks on the ATV, it is time to leave the motorized sports for a while because it is backcountry ski season here in Colorado! Here's my wish list for this year... no way to complete it, but let's see if I can do at least four:
Mt. Sherman - I would like to get a 14er descent in, so I thought this or Quandary would be an easy option.
From the Front Rage Descents book:
1. Quandary Peak: p 176, Intermediate, 5 miles :) :) :)
2. Mt Guyot: Advanced p 172, 5 miles :) :)
3. Pawnee Peak, SE Slope: Intermediate p 85 7.5 miles :) :) :)
4. Kelso: p 149, Advanced, 2.5 miles :) :) :)
5. James Peak: p 132, Intermediate, 8 miles :) :)
6. Skyscraper Peak: Intermediate p 116, 6 miles :)
I bought a new book "Powder Ghost Towns" about abandoned ski areas. Here's three from the book:
1. St. Mary's Glacier - p 51, 1 mile Intermediate :) :)
2. Jones Pass - p 63, 2.8 miles Intermediate :) :) :)
3. Climax - p 189, .75 miles Easy :) :) (For a really easy approach and gentle descents)
