A lot has gone down in Lost Lake since I last was there. Actually, in between the last time i did this run/hike there was a person who went missing for two nights back there. Word is he randomly followed a local back there through the access gate and under vertigo, no-vis conditions he decided to go his own way like stevie nicks and ended up a seriously confused (and proally hungry person). He ended up in Moonlight real estate property from what I gather, and in those two days everyone was talking about it. The police had helis up there with snowmobiles and moonlight patrol looking for this kid. Ends up that he had warrants out on his arrest, so as soon as he was dropped off by the helis the cops took him in. Howabout that- sleeping out in the woods for 2 nights then to sleeping in a jail cell?
Rob's checking out a line off this death-cornice. One person we were with broke off a huge slab of one cornice a little further down just by walking a little too close to it. Backcountry is real.
That's the way I came down this time. The snow was unbelievable compared to last time we did this.
The line out was so smooth, fresh, and long. In a few years there will be a lift at the bottom of this bowl I bet. For how good this area is and the amount of great riding to be done its only a matter of time.
That's crew from today. We hit the tram and this area at such a perfect time. Ski patrol thought the viz was sketch and to cut the chutes before we charged them, but everything was good to go.
...and thats all I got this time around. Enjoy? This season just won't let up it's still snowing- we do have heavier snow but its not rain yet!
