damian 0 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 I quite like this scale. Well worth checking it out. I might start rating the routes I do according to it. http://www.wildsnow.com/articles/ratings/ski-board-d-rating-system.html Link to post Share on other sites

eskimobasecamp 0 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 i have like 300 pictures from my trip... obviously not so many of them involving snow/mountains, as i had anticipated.... the day i crashed out was the day i took my camera out to start getting some good line shots........ so it's hard to choose what to put on, and i don't think they are so appropriate for SJ, however i might put a few on just to give you a taste of my travels down under...... then again, i might just tease you for a bit longer cause i know you love it Link to post Share on other sites
