Holy Wah, the East Wall chutes ROCK. And it's always cool to ski something they have to shoot with military artillery shells first (Pathfinder, you listening?). I spent more time on the East Wall & Pali than I did in Triginometry. And how cool was the beach @ the bottom of the Pali lift come April-May?! I took up telemark about 5 years ago and then lost an arguement with Instructors Chute at Grand Targhee, which effectively ended my career doing the stupid stuff. Which doesn't explain why I blindly followed your brother down the 26 mile death-paddle on the Little Manistee last summer.

Nope, I didn't go to Pictured Rocks this weekend. I did buy a sea kayak today... Let's paddle Saturday. You start in Oconomowok & I'll take off out of Muskegon. Pathfinder can hook us up w/ the right heading.
