North Maroon Peak Ski Descent – 6.9.06
Neal skis the June snow. Route: North Face Team: Ted, Neal Beidleman Our day on South Maroon last week was a great day by all accounts.

I was...

Chris, in the big middle section of the Landry Route. Route: East Face Team: Ted, Chris Davenport, Neal Beidleman The advanced planning was minimal, consisting of a couple of organizational calls from Chris, laced with tones of muted optimism.
