Re: Pictures, pictures and pictures!

My favorite is Rumple Minze, I love that German peppermint schnapps.
Winter camping hot chocolate milk and Rumple Minze around the campfire is the wildcat's meow. And huddled up to the wood stove.
"Schmeckt Gut" as my dad said.

Re: Suggestions for some soft shell pants?

No Helly-Hansen admires? https://www.hellyhansen.com/en_us/verglas-3l-shell-pant-62999 on sale! I've had a similar H-H pair since the '80s -- "Helly-Tech".

Re: looking for backcountry skis

Just got my Excursion 88s from Denmark last night. I opted to try the Alpina 1600 boots and manual bc magnum bindings (have heard of issues with the autos getting frozen up).
