Nice route! I love that terrain over there and have always wanted to ski off Castle Peak and explore the NW side. Well done!
Sounds like a wonderful trip. Thanks for the amazing pictures and my new Wallpaper!

Sonya and I saw your skin track on Saturday from Pick Handle Ridge and right away knew where we were headed on Sunday. We used the first half of your track to approach Goat Basin - thanks for th...
Awesome pics - send me a pm with the location of this super secret area ;)
Sorry, no picture. But the gully climbs from just south of the lake to the obvious saddle SE of pt 6304. I say obvious, but it is out of sight from the bottom of the 'main' bowl. We happe...
After scoping your other pics, I see we used a shallower and shorter gully further north to skin out of the basin; it starts north of the flats. We then followed the ridge to the top of the bowl...
Ha ha, I wouldn't worry too much about letting the secret out. The majority of people rarely seem to get past East Peak for most of the year. As far as skinning out of goat basin, it sounds...
I bet Saturday was good out there. Is that Goat Basin? I have only been there once, but we approached from the Crystal access road and roughly followed the summer trail - pretty amazing te...
Nice job Peter - looks like a sweet ride.
Hey Joe-That was our group you saw on Crown Point yesterday; nice to briefly meet you. We followed your path to the saddle of pick and saw you took care of the gully shot into the drainage so we...
Sweet wreckage shot! ;DNice job on the early start.
Brent-Thanks again for breaking trail for us - it was quite an effort that day. My wife Sonya and I were part of the party that chased you up and down the ridge. I often do reflect on how...
Distasteful and disturbing? I'm always appreciative that everyone crowds in Bullion. That way you only have to cross one ridge to become solitary. Sonya and I spent Sunday lapping li...
Hey Rob-Thanks again for the highway heading to the top of the peak; it made the trip up a snap for Sonya and I. What a great couple of runs!Did the duct-taped skins make it through the rest of...
