2 feet on the way!
Mount Olympus with Tolcat couloir filled in. Hey snowboy, you still hold the record for the biggest cliff drop in Crystal Point but I just stuck the same drop clean today. Not quite as high as you went due to an overhanging scary wind cornice hanging off where you dropped. Right around 20' of Scary FUN!

I landed two feet in where the shadows meet the sun.

The Bluebird was singing this weekend after being silent for weeks! ~Snowfall averaging 7 inches a day since Dec 19!
Let me do the math for you. That is 168 inches of snow in 24 days! Leaving mid-mountain base at 90 inches! Photo of Lumber Yard off Evergreen peak! Fresh turns and consecutive face shots all weekend! The mini rollerballs show that the pitch was about 30-35 deg. I don't have to say it, do I?
CO Rockies get Hammered again!
Too bad it's not cold enough in the east to snow, but it's plenty cold enough to produce killer blower days out here in the Rockies. In fact, it's snowing too much according to avalanche forecasters, they want it to stop... Not us!!! 50" of snow has blessed the summit and vail counties in the last 7 days. FG, AMags and RSR have had their share of freshies this past week.
1/7 - AMags dropping into Whale's Tail at Breck
1/7 - RSR Slashing turns down the ridge on Psychopath at Breck, off of chair 6
1/9 - AMags hucking a 20' at Beaver Creek, Upper Stone Creek Chutes
1/10 - RSR and sidekick ripping it through trees in Blue Sky Basin, Vail (Exact location will not be disclosed due to poaching)
1/10 - FG tearing it up through the same undisclosed tree section
1/10- Amags - Undisclosed
1/10 - RSR drops a nice diving board, Vail, Pete's Bowl
1/10 - FG Breaks trail to DEEPER (as if you thought it wasn't possible) blower pow
1/10 - FG snagging first descent down the viginized face
1/10 - AMags follows suit with the best facial from the new virgin snow (best 8 seconds ever)
1/10 - FG playing in the snow
1/10 - AMags, more face shots
Safety should always be the first thought when skiing in the BC, as well as within resort ropes, you never know what can happen...
For now, that's it from CO... The crew here will be migrating to the Wasatch mtns in the next week or so. Never Summer!

Watery Goodness
With the lack of snow on the East Coast we have to come up with other ways to play. When the waves are head high, the water a glassy Caribbean blue with temps around 46 degrees, and the air temperature reaching 55 degrees...our choice was simple. Some dirty Jersey wave fun.
Great day playing in the waves. Head high and glassy with warm temps...I still can't get the smile off my face.

Update for the Boys in Colorado
Posting from the Wasatch, the Colorado boys are also getting dumped on. I talked to my bro as he described to me that they were skiing fresh waist-deep blower pow in Blue Sky Basin at Vail today. Hell yeah!

Still Pukin
Maybe the StokeOMeter can describe what I was skiing!
Well with plenty of snow overnight and 10+ inches of snow today, skiing was epic. Lots of drops w/ deep powder landings and plenty of head over faceshots. I also experienced my first true door-hinge on teles. Just another best day of skiing in my life. I find myself saying that often this season! SICK!!!!!

Nukin n Pukin
While LCC was closed every last individual with the bug to ski pow showed up in BCC by noon time. I had my best runs in the morning with fresh lines thru lunch before the chaos. I had to leave at 1:30PM cause I didn't want to deal with the crowds and tracked out conditions. More on the way with possible up to 14"+ of light density snow to arrive tonight into tomorrow with all the pow hounds back in LCC.
South Mountain High Tor peak with the Hudson River in the background. X-mas week with the crew.
