We just started getting snow up here in Alma CO, excited to make some tours up in the Mosquito range soon. If anyone is local and feels like joining then hit me up, obviously when the snowpack/conditions allow!

It's summer so that means rock climbing. This season I want to up my grade again, currently it's sport 7c (US grade 5.12c/d), bouldering V7, British trad 5c. So fellow rock climbers on NS, what's your grade? What's your goal?

Heard a hip hop/rap song in the climbing gym yesterday and it's really familiar but I don't know the name or artist and I can't find it anywhere. It's really smooth and laid back, it has whistling in the chorus along with some like piano/organ/chime chords throughout with a nice bass guitar...

UK NSers I know you're there somewhere. Who did you vote for? How do you think it'll turn out? inb4 UKIP win and deport everyone

So basically I'm on track to fail all of my final exams in the coming week. It's pretty much granted that I won't be going to college/uni, so my plan is to go to the mountain guide school in Chile to become a ski guide. However I'm scared about costs/application rejection/can't find a job...

Anyone else stumbled across this channel on youtube? Damn it's good I'm not promoting for $$$ /claim

Any general/ski mountaineers on here? I am for one What has been your best ascent? Where do you want to climb in the future? Any epic tales to tell? sparknotes: OP is the only mountaineer in his school and feels lonely

Title says it all. Once a body was found in the spring thaw, turns out it was a dude who went in to the BC alone and fell into a tree well head first. As well as that, it was only a week ago that I was talking to a seemingly hot girl on the chair. Long story short, she removed her goggles and I...

Anyone remember that video on the dew tour course where the objective was to spin on the way down and total zero degrees rotation? Can someone link me it bc I've forgotten what it's called/where it is

This subject has made me curious after reading that five hikers narrowly escaped from an avalanche on Ben Nevis (Scotland) after gully four slid. Here's the article on it (short but sweet in true BBC style):http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-30673728 "Lochaber Mountain...

So long story short I was up riding in Scotland last week (Aviemore - CairnGorm mountain if you're interested). Found powder but to get to it I had to take a very rocky run in which has played havoc with my bases, deep gouges everywhere with one of the gouges going right down to the metal under...

For me it's the really old guys who have been motivated enough to keep skiing well on into their eighties or even nineties in some cases. Also people who shred balls in the park but are always down to teach newbies the basics, always got time for those guys. So, NSers, who/what do you respect...

Title says it all. I probably feel most sorry for kids with those shitty power parents who push their kids way too hard. Also snowboarders who lose momentum on the flat, pushing with the back foot for ages must be terrible. So, NSers, who do you feel most sorry for on the mountain?

I feel shitty and miserable one hundred percent of the time, help

I need a date for this Saturday. advice pls
