Name Change

Months ago, talk of renameing this blog began circulating, the rumor being that "climbupskidown" was siply too Newtonian. Today, white smoke rose from the wood burner, signaling a name had been chosen....Clown Yeti! This change heralds in a new era and location. Although the name has changed, the address and spirit of the site remain.

Cross hairs are aimed high at first decents of a new local moutain range that is not only "too steep to ski", but is also "inaccesable" because of a lack of trails. Advice so far has consisted of, "son, you best get yourself a horse, a four wheeler and a snow machine!" From an ex-montanan's perspective, the access here is better than ever and the steep terain keeps me up at night. With one day of easy-access steep skiing in the books (http://www.panoramio.com/photo/11942272?source=wapi&referrer=kh.google.com), its only a matter of time and training.
