Living in the PNW gives the opportunity to ski practically everything possible. There are decent terrain parks, where I definitely enjoy spending a lot of my time, learning new things, having fun, and progressing. Rain or shine, I'll be skiing park. But it does frustrates me to see that the PNW can get so much snowfall (usually amongst the most in the U.S.) but the parks just dont get going. There are resources to make great things, but there never seems to be the ambition. And whenever there is pow (or any decent snow), I'll be skiing the spots I love, steep or mellow, and if there is enough snow, Ill be out in the backcountry, hunting for the deepest snow I can. Since I grew up skiing with people that had extensive backcountry knowledge, I gained that knowledge as well, and can apply on any given day I need. Park has been an endevour of my own.

When the trees are ghosts of white, the sky is blue and the air very crisp. A light win blows around the lightest of snow. The snow is waist deep, sometimes deeper and it just doesnt end. The crystals glisten in the faint winter sun. The powder is so deep and so amazing, nothing can rival it. Its a nice weekday, the roads are closed, and I'm in solitude. Then after, go to a nice lodge or cabin, with a nice fire, and enjoy some good sex. Repeat perfect day

Ive owned brands of skis from k2, armada, salomon, atomic, rossignol, dynastar, line, and volkl, and have ridden practically every major twin tip on the market.

Dynastar, armada, rossi for skis, look/rossi bindings, orage for clothing, oakley and scott goggles, and level, dakine, and grandoe make a good glove. Stevens pass makes a good pasta, and a delicious huge ass basket of fries.
