here's FT ragging on the south face of Happo in April. one of my favorite pics i took last season

you missed it ian. unless you wanna pedal on concrete around the island, it's not gonna be fun. we asked a cab driver and two locals, got the same answer. as soon as you head inward on the island, the terrain gets mad. can't imagine even the most extreme MTBer traversing the island.

NPM thx 4 asking, got lucky w/ 3 days of sunshine. 5.2-5.6.2007 taxi from 0 to 1100m. hiked up to 1934 and back down to 0. camped on the beach and then it rained. went to a museum on the last day in Kagoshima. not much time right now, i'll let the pics do the talkin: we spent 1.5 days getting to the summit, to find an obasan who had tripped and hit her head on a rock. huge gash on her head. poor lady. helicopter came just as we arrived on the summit. dust/pebbles from the chopper blades got in my camera. this was the last shot before my camer

Originally, I’d meant to go to Anchorage and my brother who lives in Dutch (that’s Dutch Harbor, a town on the Aleutian Island of Unalaska) was going to join me for four days of snowboarding. But his wife was 8 1/2 months pregnant with their third kid, so I ended up going solo. This was my second trip, the first being to Dutch in 2004. Fractured wrist at the time, no skiing. Alaska is BIG: I had a “weekend Heli package” reserved at Chugach Powder Guides and they came to Ted Steven’s Airport in Anchorage to pick me up. It’s a 40-minute drive into the town of Girdwood with scenery

EBC how was tateyama? did u 5?

would it be possible, in the near or far future, to get Preferences on the photo galler? 90% of my pics are the same setting: specific folder (bakkan) Prefecture: Nagano Resort: Happo or Tsugaike It would be great to have such preferences saved every time I go to upload photos. Great to hear the increase to 500kb! Awesome
