we just got back from dinner with Charley. Risa, Slow, Yama-san, my g.f. and Tsondaboy. FT, you hung up before I started saying "Waaa?"
Then Tsondaboy goes, "Let me do the WWWWAAAAAAAAAAA!" classic.

Hey, thanks, kuma. me being a punter. the second picture i'm really far away ;3)
i'm doing my daily stretches and can feel the knee gaining strength slowly but surely.
-
good stuff, FT.
my favorite ascent is the one of you breaking trail. ominous
i don't wanna risk further injury, so i'm gonna take it easy for the next couple weeks.
sick pics!!

butt or ass perfectly fits. well, at least that's what i hear about a lot of people's first day out

haiku has 3 lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. in japanese, there's usually a "season" word in the first line telling you which of the five seasons it is, which i ignore. backcountry magazine has one in every issue.
Cool crisp winter air
I spent the day on my butt
First time snowboarding
Take off your bindings
Surf not waves but powder snow!
Say Yes to the No
Good friends good weather
We wear smiles turn after turn
What else do you need?

got a knee brace from the doctor today. it's definitely my MCL. the pain has gone done down considerably. i'm just glad i don't need surgery.
when i do a soccer-ball-catch-like movement, the pain is incredible.
the next few weeks have to be written off.
-
sick shots guys. i like the first 2 of jer-
different contrast and feeling with the photographer's location from some recent pics
kumapix and your arm, if only there were KUMAPIX action figure!

that's a pretty sweet picture, janus. i look so tiny compared to kaerazu in the background.
compare to one of your previous times you've been up there, janus:

i went to the doctor this morning. surgery is unlikely. it's my MCL (medial/inner) knee ligament that's been over-extended. i'm getting a knee brace soon. i'm just glad i don't need surgery.
-
thanks for the well wishes, guys.
janus, hope the back heals up quickly.

Couldn't ask for better skies. We were concerned about the winds slabs down in the snowpack and the wind scour from the northerlies. A day of sunshine and no new snow in the last 24 hours. What better way than to spend Leap Day on the north faces of Happo?
Lap 1
Friday morning, Kumapix and I went to Skyline to find the top Quad closed. We dropped off the north face.
Kumapix, slash into the sunshine
Me:
Lap 2:
We met up with Janus and Paedde (his last day of skiing on his Japan journey), we left one car at the exit and double-backed to the gondola. I've been wanting to get in this area for 3 seasons. Unless otherwise noted, these are Paedde's pic. This needs its own thread while you're on your way to Utah, Paedde.
We topped out, if you look closely, you can see Janus.
Let's zoom in to my pic from the pit. I had paedde had rope me up for the quick dig and didn't find anything too make us turn back on such a steep slope, though it was getting late.
Janus is trying out for a backcountry dot com top page photo
I told everyone it was 55 degrees for 150-200 meters.
I lied: it was 53 degrees.
(my pic)
I'm off
As soon as I hit the sun, I cartwheeled.
Kumapix
Kuma gets the soul shot of the day. Good b/c he's usually the one taking pictures of others
Cool. let's see another
My shot of Kuma shooting Paedde
Everyone else has pictures coming up.
AND HAPPY B-DAY SOCK MONKEY

thanks for the get-well wishes everyone.
went to the hospital in tokyo this morning b/c we don't trust the place i went to on saturday.
got 3 x-rays, some shippu, a bandage wrap, and pain killers. it's either part of my ACL or my MCL (medial meniscus ligament); will go back and see the sports specialist--the same guy who helped me with my wrist four years ago--on wednesday.
but, the good news is that i'm walking without cruches. what dumb trick to try.
mr. wiggles said it best at Tracks Saturday nite: "ooooh, terje, one-footing it! ooo!!" u can always count on your SJ buddies to laugh at you when you do some dumbas thing.
Friday's epic TR coming up momentarily
