skinny might have something to do with the way out in the midst of it with no pack, as in no food.

looks viod of the two legged animals, and much like the Rocky's only higher then what I've seen of them. I'd wager a guess at Chile. but I've never been so I'm just guessing. steller none the less…

Just a speculative fiction. No cause for alarm.

NW India eh, do you know Nick? he's got a knack for running into kids on bikes way out in the middle of no where. maybe not.

next year - tuscany. Swiss alps. Fruita again. Colorado rockies and tetons. Possibly k2 if the bullets stop flying.

Want to redo keystone standard. Hear that jumbo creek has some sweet stuff. Definitely Taseko -[HTML_REMOVED] Gun

elbow pass. highly recommended.
ambitious route, well executed..except for the wrong turn and the lack of lights on descent.

no better pics, as i was busy enjoying the ride.

now, the reason for posting -

just up from this pic there is a fork in the trail, and digging around at work, i noticed the trail to the right is mapped as following the ridgelines all the way to warner pass - it follows 'trail ridge' above lorna lake [HTML_REMOVED] then south pretty much right below the summit pyramid of mt warner….to finally end at warner pass.

i'm thinking 'hiking trail'…but maybe not???

Nice photos everyone.

So many freaks, so few circuses.

2nd pic is pretty amazing as well.

Best I can do is this one. This is from the eastern cascades, just over an hour from Seattle.
Let's see how long before the Seattle locals figure it out;)

p.s. - I'm the one in front:P **
