Jeremy Wegner and I headed out on Friday with no real plans other than to check out the conditions near Aspen. It’s a long snowmobile ride, but at this time of year it’s nice to check out a new zone when the sledding is so easy. With any luck, Luke Shaffner and his buddy Nate visiting from Montana would join us as well. We decided to kill some time waiting for them with a quick snowmobile lap. North facing conditions remain excellent (Jeremy):
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then we started heading across the valley just in time to catch Luke dropping in on another sled accessed line:
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As it turned out, Luke had gotten a work call right before he left the trailhead and had to head home, but Nate was still able to join us. Jeremy and I had decided we wanted to ski Taylor, so that’s where the three of us headed next. I’d been wanting to ski Taylor ever since Pete and I skied Star Peak<\/a> a couple of years ago, so I was excited to check it out. Taylor:
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Another day:
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

East face of Castle, looking good:
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

East face of Cathedral, really want to ski this one:
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Lots of fun lines on Conundrum, and I’m not even talking about conundrum couloir:
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jeremy closing in on the summit:
\n \"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The face looked good, minus the dust, of course:
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jeremy:
\n\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

All in all, a great day, filled with new lines and a list of lines we’d like to go back to. Until next time…<\/p>\n
