1/13 Logan Canyon 7m

Postby Brian Fox » Tue Jan 13, 2009 6:56 pm

So I noticed the Logan Summit gauge had been pretty pinned for about three days now so I went to check it out. Got to the summit about 11:00 and it was peeling up all over the place. I wanted to ride a slope I scoped out a week ago but its a little jaunt on snowshoes and the parking at the summit was drifted over. Ended up going back down to the snowmobile parking. I grabbed my 10m frenzy, i was solo and these things are easier to launch and land- I think, and a 2005 7m frenzy and walked out in the middle sink. I was getting my 10m ready when a couple of gusts made me put it away and get out the 7m. I've held the 10m down in 25-30mph but it was scary as hell and since i was solo i figured it was sketchy enough already. Ended up mostly just cruising around, wind was really gusty prob 15-35mph...wasn't good for jumping at all and the couple times I ventured up on the slope of the middle sink were pretty scary, snow was great tho! I made a map of what I know about the sinks-enjoy!

Brain,
Thanks for posting. I'm headed up there this weekend. It will be interesting to see if anything is still there.

No prob Ken...there might be a little left this weekend but the high pressure seems to have moved in everywhere. Maybe I'll see you out there if there's wind! -Brian
