If you look closely, you can spot the snazzy red soles of the Xplore sole. This shot was taken Friday in NW Wyoming.

It was great snow Stephen, it would have been perfect for those V6s of yours.
Looks like it was Insane regardless. ;)

@Tom M, I don’t see no red soles, just a lot of beautiful white snow, and blues skies.
Do I need glasses?
I like your sense of humor. What kind of a mixed message am I sending with my color combination?

That you’re pretty conservative, but in your “sole” there’s a bit of a hippy rebel in there somewhere?
But, you’re part of that wild telemark tribe, so …

Had a bit of wind here last night. That is part of a neighbors fence stuck in my house. How strong were they? 100mph, maybe.

This dude was awesome. A recently retired Swedish Army Lt. Col, I asked him- "Infantry?" and he replied- "No god damn it, Cavalry!". His pack weighed like 10 tons, all his gear except his skis were army issue- heavy sleeping bags, heavy everything! His skis have no metal edges because he skis a lot with his hunting dogs and does not want to amputate their little toes. He is an excellent skier and a good story teller.

Found some moose tracks. They're around, but there isn't many. I put a camera up there today. There's beaver ponds, bogs, little lakes, a spring, a couple streams (one pretty marshy), all really close by, hoping that's just it territory and it'll wander back through again.

Look for heavily tracked spots where the moose stops to nibble Aspen or Willow twigs, fresh evergreen tips, or whatever else they eat in your neck of the woods. I have seen favorite trees that get eaten on a regular basis. They will have almost bare sections.

That Willow bush has been picked clean over and over.
