dirt quarter of fury

I found an enormous pile of soft dirt south of Mortensen last Thursday that I dug into a dirt quarter. Three days of drying and shazam! An 8 foot tall, near vertical dirt quarter pipe is born. Kevin and I went back to ride it tonight and damn was it sweet. Tire taps were the only things Kevin and I could really do on something this steep. We both wanted to 180 out of it but it was so hard to get enough speed because the run in was up hill and our lighting situation was definitely lacking. Tomorrow we're headed to Dubuque to check out their dirt jumps. I've seen them once before and they looked incredible. I can't think of a better way to spend a day off from work and school. Here are some pictures:
