So sick. That first top section was nuts, so tight, steep, and peppered. Real gnarly. But, once it started to open up, that looked like most fun run ever. So much vert and pow.

The hypodermic needle is in upper Hogum fork. If your at the Bird over by scottys your in white pine canyon. To get to Hogum you start at White Pine trailhead and go accrost White Pine to Red Pine up and over Maybird and down into Hogum...Thats the most typical approach some pepole go up the Y and out the ridge(although you might shave a hour off the approach its fairly spicy from what I hear and rather sketchy)
