Today the water might have been frozen, but the jibs in the tree were off the hook. Waking up early to cut apart a burn and a m3 to make a sled to transport our 16 foot rail up to the high country. After a gruling snowmobile ride to the rail already set up we began our mission to pack out the inrun and get our skills dialed. Once comfortable hitting the smaller 14 down rail we set up the 16 flat rail in front of it so that we had a flat down! And as the sun was setting we set off into the woods and back to the cars! Pictures soon to come!
