Last Powder day at Brighton for the 08-09 season.

String and I took time off our 9 to 5 schedule to get one last taste of the powder.

This is String going big off a cat track on Great Western



This is myself getting some air and enjoying the landing. Oh so soft!

The End 08-09

Every season comes to an End. Sometimes hard to believe, when you get good snow days in April. And to look back, and realize in all started 5 months ago in mid-November. The 08-09 started at K-Town and ended at K-Town. In between gave me memories to last a lifetime. Thank you, all, for making the last 5 months sooooo much fun.

Boomy and I, downtown Hue, VN.

My Last Run in BCC----Soligully

Jackson MFing Hole

The Solitude crew at Jackson Hole. Great times with great friends. This pic below is all of us with the infamous Cody Peak in the background.




Last Tram of the '08-'09 ski season leaves to park at the top.



this pic is a beater in Corbet's Couloir. Wait that's ME after a mandatory drop in where I was working my way and lost my edge on the snow before the drop and fell in, stuck it and straight-lined to 40mph chattering speed instantly. No crash which was good. One word of advice. Don't try this on tele skis(scary fun)





Rendezvous Peak where the tram takes you up 4,139' vertical. Corbet's Couloir is the narrow strip of skiable terrain towards the top from the Teton Village
