Re: Looking for backcountry ski partners
Maybe in missing a back story, not sure why being sued would even be an issue? Urban Snowshoer, I'll pm you

Don’t forget about the oodles of peaks we have to ski late-winter!

Re: Looking for backcountry ski partners
I'm in a similar situation - have all the gear essentials and some training, looking to hit it a bit harder this year. My plan is to do a couple tours near Berthoud Pass and then maybe try to hit up Quandary. Feel free to get in touch.
