Inspired by some friends recently who couldn’t find print copies of my out-of-print book for Colorado Backcountry Skiing, I got started on a web version. Very preliminary but I got most of the Independence Pass information in there for all of you. The site is BackcountrySkiingCO.com
I know it’s rough, I’ll work hard on it for the next couple of weeks. Sorry about any glitches but I figured it was better to just go public so the information is out there in time for Inde opening this afternoon or soon after.
To reach the Inde backcountry skiing info, know that when you click the dropdown menu for “Routes” it is a ways down. The other stuff is just shell with no content.
Hope this helps with your Colorado spring skiing!
Please keep comments to minimum for now, as most problems you’ll notice are already on my list.
