Hiking/Scrambling/Snowboarding

January 2012 Cardiac arrest on the afternoon of January 15. Just returned from a little split-boarding in the BC with a good buddy. I walked in the front door, stood in the kitchen and then collapsed. My heart stopped. Breathing stopped. Gone in a split second. Wife was home thankfully. Dialed 911. EMT's at the door in 3 minutes. CPR and in between they took the paddles to me - 7 times in total.

Finding it harder and harder to keep up with blog updates of any regular frequency. I still get out, though this summer season has been slow when compared with past years. Time and money seem to be the big culprits...... I have not enough of either it seems. I love the country around here, but I have been everywhere within 50 miles. Everywhere. I still enjoy this immediate area, though places are

...yes. It has been several weeks since an update, and I have been meaning to get one up for a while. Busy? Yes. I have neglected my yard...for years. Weekends would find me in the hills all summer long. That is great and all, but damn, my yard suffered. It wasn't what I thought of the yard, but what my wife thought of it that made my stick around most of this summer. It needed some major

2011-04-20T20:52:00.000-07:00

Snowboarding? Yes, we just can't stop. Even though winter is dying a slow death we can still find places that hold on to that season far beyond what would seem normal for most of the country. We love it. I love it.Tate loves it.We have the weekend trips to high spots that still have snow measured in feet, 10 feet, or more in places.Evenings are reserved for short trips into the mostly dry, snow

Lost my igloo ... anyone seen it?Click > New Years Igloo < ClickWe found that the igloo was deeply buried under all the snow that has fallen over the last three months... at least that is what we think.... It may have collapsed.... but who really knows....I left a couple of items in it, in case I wanted to use it again, with the intent that I would retrieve at that time....well guess that didn't

Met up with some friends from Massachusetts over the weekend, Bill, Gina and Dave. Awesome day on the hill! After some mellow laps off of Southern Comfort, our East Coast friends proceeded to show us some gnarly terrain that we had neglected on past visits, War Dance being the first steep run of the day.Then a couple of wild runs just off of the Thunder Wolf Quad. Excellent terrain and a lip that

New Year's Igloo

2011-01-02T18:08:00.000-08:00

Hiked up to the igloo on Friday evening. Cold. Very cold. The frigid surroundings were a sight to behold. Scattered clouds lay low on some of the distant peaks. Once darkness fell I began to feel isolated, cut off from the rest of humanity by the sheer presence of this deep cold. No getting in or out till morning.Spent the rest of the night reading a few chapters - a book Teneile gave me for

Late October - Early November 2010The Charcoal KilnsBell MountainAs I began my hike above the kilns, I made a mental note to to keep an eye out for some, or any, sign of the men who once cut down hundreds of the trees that covered the slopes above. Sure enough, I soon spotted an old can. Then another, and another. They were everywhere. Broken glass and porcelain were also in the mix of old time

Sometimes it is just amazingly, incredibly , almost painfully..... beautiful. "All I could hear was the whisper of wings. Like the sound of wind in a distant wheat field, never really more than a faint murmur, and then..... deafening silence."

Darby Canyon / Fossil Mountain 9/19/10

2010-09-22T09:23:00.001-07:00

I hiked past the Wind Cave and up to the saddle just below Fossil Mountain on Sunday. The scenery was awesome as usual in the Tetons. I have to say that it is not quite as spectacular as the South Leigh Creek area though. The views are limited unless one gets very high on Fossil Mountain. I opted not to continue to the top of this mountain because of high winds and low water supply. Of note was

While walking out of the canyon, the sun setting on the mountains and darkness gathering under the boughs, I happen to glance over to see rays of the sun light up a small patch of forest glade. It was a ways

A photo essay of our trip to Diamond on Sunday the 16th..... Did not summit, as we were there for the snowboarding only! Well maybe for the exercise too. And the views...yeah, the views! Apologies for the excessive use of photos....

Snowboarding in May!

2010-05-11T09:57:00.000-07:00

The peaks....they were awesome!Sorry about the excessive amount of photos....but dang....it was so beautiful up there. The landscape was big. Huge would be a better word I suppose. Lonesome. Yes, that describes it also. The snow, once we found it, was like....hmmm, well it was like powdered sugar frosting. Tate described it like creamy peanut butter. Regardless of what it was, it put big smiles

2010-04-28T13:26:00.000-07:00

The ego wants to compare. It wants to find reasons for you to feel good about yourself (“I’ve got a new bike!”). But by doing that it also becomes very hard to not compare yourself to others who have more than you (“Oh no, Bill has bought an even nicer bike!”). And so you don’t feel so good about yourself once again. If you compare yourself to others you let the world around control how you feel

Hell's Half Acre Hike - April 25, 2010

2010-04-26T09:00:00.001-07:00

Just to the west of Idaho Falls, between I-15 to the south, and 20 to the north lies the the Hell's Half Acre Lava Flows. Hell's Half Acre flows over about 222 square miles or 162,000 acres. Sixty-six thousand acres are within a Wilderness Study Area.The Hell's Half Acre flows came from a vent that is located along a rift. This rift parallels the 62 mile long Great Rift that goes through

2010-04-25T10:57:00.000-07:00

Just a short trip up to the snowline on Baldy, took the hounds...they loved it. The hike started at bees and flowers, through dense stands of mountain mahogany then ended with deep drifts of snow blocking further advance. Lots of deer foraging the lower slopes, counted at least 50 head. Up high the snow is still very deep, even some still in the trees from a storm a few days ago....sat on a sub

Done with snowboarding for the season......

2010-04-19T09:14:00.000-07:00

...for the most part. Targhee on Sunday was ok, some creamy goodness down low was awesome. The top stayed hard and ugly and was a bit of a disappointment really. It would have been nice had they groomed a little more. I like un-groomed powder, but this stuff was really hard, and choppy. The one run off the top that was groomed was a "shit-show' and not all that much fun. (I don't want to get "

A bluebird day for sure, and as we found a place to park I was puzzled at the amount of cars pulling into the parking lot....'till I remembered that JHMR closed the previous weekend.Still, no lift lines, plenty of deep powder, sometimes even too much. Incredible.There were two firsts for me

Living in Paradise

2009-11-16T21:20:00.001-08:00

Living in Paradise, yes.....I think so. For all the negative things I can think of that come with living here (and there are a few), they pale in comparison to the plus side of great things to be enjoyed in this area. Not everyone enjoys the great outdoors. Hard to believe, I know. Why that is so, is hard to say. Too cold, too hot, too many bugs.....blah, blah, blah...... you get the picture.

A load appeared after a couple of hours of good times. Thanks John!The weather is holding off just a bit, not quite winter, but definitely feeling like late fall. The winds were light, and the skies clear. Just perfect for an afternoon hike close

Big and Little Sisters (Points 10,954 & 10,717) are located +-3 miles northwest of Diamond Peak, and 5.8 miles southeast of Bell Mountain. What makes these two points particularly attractive is the ability to climb them early (usually) in the spring. The Lemhi Range is relatively dry and in the rain shadows of the Pioneer and Lost River Ranges. The snow melts early on the southwest slopes of

What stands out most about this mountain? Why the name of course. Cream Puff. Sounds Simple, sounds easy. Sounds like it might be a nice, pleasant walk to the top. Sounds like whoever named this peak was an escapee from the insane asylum. After several weekends of fairly tough going on some long approaches, we thought we would take it easy on our next one.

Made a quick Trip up to the Teton Pass on Saturday morning. We would have liked to have waited for the snow to soften a bit, but time constraints didn't allow us that luxury. To be honest - the snow sucked. We waited for as long as we could and then just bit the bullet. The boys negotiated the crust much better than I did, making it look easy. I was having a hard time, and only towards the bottom

Grand TargheeIt was a beautiful day to be there. Could have used a bit of powder, but the sun, blue sky and warm temps were very tolerable....Trenton was too tired after 2 days of State Championship Wrestling to come along, so it was just me and Tate. He spent the day douching dad every chance he got. And he got plenty of those! Hell, I even got myself a dozen times or more. The light wind was
