You'll have plenty of time to think about living in a van down by the river when you are living in a van down by the river

Kevin on Point Six.

Been spring for a while now. So, skinning in the morning...

... and biking in the evening.

On weather days, visiting the big kids' school.

Mammoth for Spring Break.

And the Boiling River.

And a walk to see battling bighorns.

Back home: gnarliest line in the Rattlesnake? Kevin says yes. I turned around on the shoulder, so can't comment except to offer this.

Good morning Jackson!

Six hours later.

Day Two: feeling a bit sluggish, to be honest.

Five hours later, settled pow on the glacier.

Home again. A friend's backyard "before".

Same yard, "during".

Take a break, go to the Scapegoat.

Next week, the Bob.

Back to the yard, and a few more trips to the rock shop.

Cinco de Mom-O. This year we subbed some party favorites for a slightly new menu, including fried plantains.

20160508_153731

Take green plantains, peel and slice as thin as possible. Fry.

Dipping sauce: mayo, cilantro, lime, jalapeno. Blend.

Heart Lake.

I called the ranger in Superior to see about the road. He said I could drive to the trailhead, but if I really wanted to ski I'd need a snowmobile since it was 2 miles to the lake. Get to the trailhead and there's a big sign saying in bold letters that snowmobiling is not allowed.

One of those pictures where I try to look all casual, but in reality I spent the last three hours in full body contact bushwhacking.
