Cliff – a 480 Remington is NOT the weapon of choice for roadside poaching or snowmachine-aided depopulation of endangered species. It’s a .50-caliber rifle. And if you want it to launch monster 4x4s then be sure to get one without the hydraulic recoil. At over 2 miles away my brother is deadly with his. Only problem then is getting to and retrieving what you’ve shot. The bullets weigh more than a Hillshire smoked sausage.

Nice pokes at Mr. Dawson, but what does it say about Mr. McClean that he knows all those links?

What made this story so unbelievable was that the snow machines were never used, nor was a Coors Banquet beer opened. Otherwise, I found it entertaining.

Judging by the links, those mildsnow guys are hard core!

I am known throughout the ski world for my fashion sense, and that purple outfit would definitely be worth a fortune if I still had it. Heck, I might even wear it, especially while spooning tracks in the Wasatch as it enhances certain wriggling parts of the anatomy while making tight rhythmic turns. But alas, it was sold many years ago, and I absolutely lost money on it!

I surely do! That was a fun day – one of the more memorable this fine summer.

Ken – what the unsuspecting driver doesn’t know is that the beefy looking lagbolts on the railing are actually only 1/4″ deep and the railing itself is made out of balsa wood. It should give way with the slightest nudge.

ATA- What sort of ramped wind lip (read trap) is that rail going to provide for unsuspecting vistors. I envision you enraptured soaking in the look of terror on unsuspecting drivers as they teeter on the cornice before plunging to their doom below (and no doubt capturing in on the latest surveillance camera you convinced Backcountry.com they must carry).
