    University of Utah

    The nursing program is really competitive, that's entirely different than just applying for general undergrad.

    Which sport has the fittest athletes?

    C'mon, skiing has some of the fittest people around. Those Euros go from Alta base to the top of the new Collins in like 18 minutes - that's faster than the old lifts could get you there. And then they bomb down shit on 160cm twigs and absurdly unsupportive boots.

    Skiing's "first descent"

    The movie is being made, and it is hopefully going to be pretty good. I'm still not clear on whether it's going to be a real theater release or more of a TV release. It's going to talk a lot about ski mountaineering in addition to the Seth Morrison/ Shane McConkey type skiing.

    Is there a way up the frontside of Timpanogos?

    What do you even mean by "frontside"? The West side?

    Climber falls at westminster

    Hey, does the outdoor bouldering wall have holds on it yet? I went over there a little while back and there were only a few holds on it at the top. Who made the mistake? The climber, or the staff?

    Hippies (Rant)

    Yeah dude, you are so cool, hating on a huge group of people you know nothing about. People with dreads are losers.

    Most underrated rock band of all time.

    Speaking of Clapton, how bout Derek and the Dominoes? Not very long lived I guess, but shit that stuff is good.

    Photographers-camera ideas

    If it's between the D70s and the Rebel XT, probably go with the Canon. Most ski photographers I know shoot Canon and prefer it. But, getting in the door with the D50 is quite a bit cheaper than you can do with a Canon system. I have a D50 and love it. If money hadn't of been an issue, I would...

    21 inches in 24 hours, more to come for sweet utah

    Took a little unplanned vacation Thurs/Fri. Thursday was the most incredible storm skiing I've ever had. Spent the night on the GMD bar's floor, watched large avalanches go to the road Fri. morning, then got to ski the Alta private club all day, cause the road didn't open until 12:30. Storm...

    ---------------------Some thoughts on being injured--------------

    Good attitude most of the time. Only problem is, there are injuries that you can't recover from. We forget that sometimes after seeing ourselves and our friends successfully recover from serious injuries.

    RIP - Doug Coombs killed in Avalanche today

    Watched "the continuum" with some friends tonight, with him in mind. Update on the accident over at Ttips. Looks like a slip on an ice patch in a couloir, rather than an avalanche. Very sad.

    Booting on skin tracks

    I don't seem to run into this much, and most of the time bootpackers don't get very far, so I usually don't chew people out about it. But it is bad form, and people will get pissed about it, especially if you're bootpacking up switchbacks or something like that.

    Ok, so there's some problems with the site... how do we change it?

    An ignore list could be good.

    Alta

    Or ski the blower pow that will be there tomorrow. At least for the first 15 minutes after they open.

    Bad News Cliffs

    To go big, you just have to be there when they open ballroom after a storm. Or you could try to land on firmer snow I guess.

    Banning Snowboarders

    The traversing, dumbass. It's only been said about a dozen times already. That's the reason, at Alta at least. It's a good reason, snowboarders would severely cunt things up on the traverses there.
