Jon Krakauer Instagram – I headed out on a 9-hour solitary mindfulness retreat/splitboard tour in the Indian Peaks Wilderness before sunrise this morning. The snowpack has been weird and scary for quite a while now, so I dialed down my expectations about what terrain might be safe to ride. When numerous pits, hasty pits, and other careful analysis revealed this classic line from the summit of one of my favorite mountains to be well within my level of acceptable avalanche risk, I was happily surprised. Being able to ride it made a wonderful day even better. | Posted on 21/Feb/2020 08:59:13
