What would be your dream ski trip? B.C pillows? Japan Pow? A summer camp? pure park? And what would your skis and gear be?
Might be a repost but I couldnt find anything anything in the searchbar.

wow did you just see a trailer for a movie or something?

if i had a sled i could have seasons upon seasons of fun exploring the wasatch. gota save up for that shit. but if it was just a ski "trip". id say i would either want to hit up japan, heli-ski interior BC or AK, or spend alot of time in chamanoix. those are my dream trips right now.

any day I get with by brother in a good wyoming/utah zone ends up being the best. we use thumbs and legs to get the goods and are always on the prowl for pillow terrain, long steep colouirs, and technical faces. it's always fun to session a cliff and I need to hit more booters again. I've been doing a few rad snowcave trips lately but certainly prefer my own bed.
to get more of these dream days, I'm moving back to Jackson Hole by Dec next year.
Then I'll need to pinch myself in early march 2012 when we go to Mica Heli/Rogers pass!
Beyond that I've got my sights on Japan in February 2013.
My on3p cease and desist are my guns of choice, complimented by my dukes.

somewhere in the Alps.

it would be just as much about the adventure / complete change from what i know as it would be about the skiing.
