Finally….alpine! Four years in the making and we’re now above treeline at Retallack. Well…Kia is, but the rest of us aren’t far behind.
Got a backup band for James today so he’s not so alone. Glory and Kurtis from Rossland came out today, and since we were heading for the new trails up top, Kia, Amber, and Matt joined in.
Whoa…fullface makeout sesh. Safe sex, Kootenay style.
Was it good for you?
The upper trail is called State of Mine, and should be complete from Hollywood Ridge within a few weeks. Where we drop in through the sub-alpine is Guitar Solo (see what I did with the post title now?), and it’s already a classic. Here’s a few berm riffs from the crew.
We banged out a bunch more laps after the morning, as it was James’ last day. We weren’t stopping much though, as we broke through about 14k’ of vertical. Just took a little break to session this hit on the Kessel Run.
