Leaving for snowboarding in Kashmir India Friday... Also doing a morning at the snowdome in Dubai..

Not bringing a lot - Going to have to re-wear some clothes... I hope i don't offend anyone with my stench..

i can usually get a couple days out of my base layers - but add in curry? Could get ugly..

Will report if i can.. The Himalayas await!

A Salam a Lakum !

This should be one heck of a TR to read! Enjoy! And hopefully the whole curry/multi day baselayer thing will work out ;) :eek: ;)

Thanks all...

My intention is to ride big... Not so many turns... :) Brining only the splitboard - should be interesting..

We got a crew of 7 from Hunter(all great skiers,telmarkers and riders)... meeting up with a couple of folks in Dubai...

We're planning on stopping in on the sitar shop that the Beatles used to go to in Delhi... Want to check into some tabla drums...

Reusing clothes for skiing is the way to go... My gear (except my boots/socks) doesn't really get that smelly...

I don't think you'll offend anybody with your stench in Kashmir, maybe in Dubai.

Enough vindaloo and you won't need skins to go uphill. You'll have your own personal jet pack.

I figured Tablas were in the mix.

Have fun
