Lou,

Thanks for coming by and and checking out our humble little operation in town here. And, of course thanks for the “real” low down on my museum era skis.

Me and another guide are still thinking of trying the South west couloir of South Maroon on Monday, and if you have any new info on the Maroon Lake road access over there it would be greatly appreciated. Maybe we’ll see you up there.

And thanks for the vote of support for CB Mtn Guides.

Yep, I did stop by the Guides office. Excellent to see they're having a strong presence in CB, as the place has always deserved a solid guiding business. As for the skis/bindings, they're the Swiss military white version. We've got those in the WildSnow collection so I was indeed able to give Jayson some beta.

Lou, Yeah…the winter that wouldn’t start now refuses to quit. I’m in the office until 6ish and again Friday am. I scored a mint pair of old 10th mtn skis complete with strap-on skins and old FT88 Fritschi bindings that maybe you could help me put a date on. Enjoy the snow…

Jayson, we got weathered out of upper Slate River this morning, kinda tired at the moment after so many weeks of traveling, early starts etc., probably heading back over the hill tomorrow, but you never know. If possible I’ll stop by. Mom/gran is pretty bummed that it’s still snowing 7 months later, perhaps I’m letting her influence me (grin).
