Hardrock 100 - Cancelled

I live out west, but farther west and north - never spent time in the Rocky Mountains where you have more snow. Like I said, I'm curious and trying to prompt more stories, descriptions, and photos of what it's like. I have heard and seen literally dozens of avalanches happen though (mostly point releases in mornings in the spring as the sun hits).

We're not talking about standard spring point-release wet slides from late snow. Central Rockies had historic avalanche cycles this year with 100-300year slides happening, many pre-Spring in March. Massive carnage, whole slopes being mowed down and huge debris piles at roads, creeks and opposite hillsides. Example around here -

Sure, you're used to walking through piles of snowy avy debris, but below 10,000' those piles have melted into 5-20ft tall stacks of timber. Skiing has been great though - weeks/months of corn still to be had at 12,000' around here.

Changing the name to SOFTROCK.

Pansies. Run the race. Watch what Kilian does on his Instagram.

How about we call it global warming because that's what's happening. If you're too dumb to learn that global warning causes increased snowfall, then you're not going to learn it by calling it climate whatever.

Let's not forget that you-know-who doesn't even know the difference between climate and weather... and about 30% of the US population is exactly like him.

Global Warming sure is confusing. It simultaneously causes more precipitation in the winters but also more drought in the summers? It's causing the polar ice caps to expand in recent years while also causing them to decrease in the previous decade? How much of my middle class wealth and US society's technology and innovation do we need to give up to "fix" the problem? So many questions!!!

wimps.

Go cry in your safe space. You’re a pawn of the leftists.

Or Mother Nature was being particularly cruel to Xavier?! He was scheduled to run again and now needs to wait another year.

Good point! But it’s amateur hour. They’ve canceled & haven’t taken it down from UltraSignup.

Maybe they had to give X a free entry as compensation. Only kidding (as far as I know).
