It's day two here at the West Coast Session. A fat foot of fresh fluff has fallen overnight, leaving a pleasant surface to shred.
Our destination today: Mt. Hood Meadows, where our scheduled park shoot metamorphosed into a late-spring powder frenzy. Powder-hugry locals already hard at work on the goods gawked in disbelief as remaining lines were pillaged by roving teams of WCS riders.

Meanwhile, Sammy C. escorted a few lucky individuals to his secret stashes on the mountain, while 4bi9 and Saga skiers dispatched on a discrete booter mission to upper regions of Ski Bowl.
A lucky few had had the foresight to bring powder skis along for this trip (among them Japanese skier and Bravo ski editor Tatsuya Tayagaki and Josh "I thought I was over skiing, then realized I just needed to poop" Anderson). Nevertheless, park skis seemed to hold back no one from sending it huge on anything and everything.
