    Most important thing – have they heard of Putoline over there?

    Careful – they might think TJ covers his chain with cheesy chips & gravy.

    I think its only fair that you tell us. 1. How many times you fell over skiing, and 2. off the side of the sled…

    Looks amazing, what an experience, very jealous

    3 times on my arse in 100 m on the skis downhill.  I was ok on the fkat.  Sled went over once.  Fell a few times in the deep powder with the snoeshoes.  Very difficult to get up again after that especially as my mate was layghing so much😜🙄

    Is that the bar with the sour toe?

    Have you been to the bar with the dirt floor?

    That view from the Dime is a great one. Is the moosehide slide visible this time of year. It’s a landslide that looks like a moose hide. I’d imagined it was about 40 years old, then saw it in pictures from the gold rush days. It stuck in my mind.

    Are the tailings visible by the road on the way into town. Basically a post industrial eyesore, but interesting.

    No its a historic bar and no bar with dirt floor

    The slide and tailings are both visible

    Today i am going snowmobiling to the ” top of the world” road. Which is the road over to Alaska and goes over a mountain range.

    Variuos events on this weekend that i have been roped into including a lip sync contest and an open mike night.

    By day 54 tj had let his personal hygiene and grooming slip.

    Mounties are still optimistic he will be found and are currently following a promising scat trail.

    Well, I mean, those mountains aren’t messing around.👍 As someone that looks up at the hills on the SDW and thinks ssshhhiiitttt… I reckon those bad boys might be a bit of a sod to pedal up.

    Hiya

    Yesterday we drove a couple of hours north to Tombstone national park for some snowshoeing and skiing.   Scenery to die for.  We were hoping to drive up to Tuk on the north coast but the road has been closed.  Maybe next week

    Dring at 50 to 60 mph on snow covered roads makes me twitch.  At these temperatures the packed snow is astonishingly grippy even without studded tyres.

    Been helping my pal with a fair bit of snow clearing as well in preparation for the melt which is coming soon as daytime temps are reaching zero now

    Hoping to go to a trappers camp this week and camp there.  Brrrrrrrrrr

    Next week to drive up north

    I survived the lipsync night which was quite a big event and our troupe came 3rd of 15 acts.  I also survived the open mike night where i sang in public for the first time ever and didn’t embarrass myself.

    I am wearing sunnies a lot if the sun is out.  I take them off for photos

    We were hoping to drive up to Tuk on the north coast but the road has been closed.

    I just did that on Google Maps.  Amazing.  Hope you get a chance to do it!
