Thank you!

My wife and I went up last July, didn't climb it. This time I drove up from Jackson by myself, took the video and walked up to the top of the jump. It's a lot steeper than it looks Lol

It ALWAYS is....like Olympic Downhill...looks kinda "meh"....then you see the spectators/photographers standing trail side...down hill leg straight, up hill leg w knee under the chin smiley

When young and resilient used to ski Tuckerman's...kinda like skiing out the side of your house (just waaayyy further to the ground) definitely an occasion to wear brown ski pants....

We hiked about half way to the top of Mt Washington on the Tuckersmans Ravine Trail. Must have been 2-3 dozen people going up with skis and snowboards. Their was still a decent amount of snow. So much they had avalanche warnings up and a few trails were still closed
