Thank you very much! The glissade was great even at night. We had to use caution on the way down so we had to control the speed. The slope and the angle though is perfect for a long glissade. In fact I would climb it again just for that glissade. Even with the control factors in place, it is easily the best glissade I have ever done!

Good job!!!But there is no Solstice in March. ;-)

Re: Good job!!!"Equinox" implies "equal", and this TR has no equal. :-)
Good time coming down the mountain. How good was the glissade? Did the glissade compare to any others you have done?
