Fellow snow riders in the West know how AMAZING December was for us. I had some pretty great powder days here in Utah. Since then we've had quite the dry spell so here's a powder skiing edit to hold you over until the next snowfall. Here's to more snow soon! The West needs it. May Ullr bless these mountains with his steps.

I was able to get out on January 2nd and what a day for the weather to clear and get in some powder runs. A GREAT way to start the new year.

Not really any skiing in this, just footage I got in the backcountry yesterday. This is a sort of peaceful white noise video in the wintery mountains. Made to help slow and rest your mind or just watch some pretty snowy mountain and cloud footage. No music, just wind SFX. This was filmed near the Primrose Cirque on Mount Timpanogos.

I'm required to have someone film me for a ski guide course application, so this was the most footage I've ever had of someone else filming me. So this was actually a really fun edit to put together. When the powder is this good, it makes editing pretty dang enjoyable. It's always fun to relive a day skiing like this.

But it's also so fun.
Skis are Line Chronic 18-19, traditionally a park ski but this year's model is so so good for freeride too.

Sorry, no action shots...not a lot of safe zones in the Utah backcountry right now so this past week I spent some time just sitting on a ridgeline and enjoying the view. Took these two motionlapses while relaxing.

Man, I really didn't get to film much in the park. Busy with work in the backcountry and endless powder days. An awesome reason to not film buds in the park. Here are some shots for you all to satiate the craving a little!
It's that time of year where the craving returns! Creating an ski edit has become a bit of a tradition. These are cuts from some of my favorite filming of this season.

Powder day video to hold the craving over as winter is on our doorsteps!
The song's tempo and lyrics fit perfect with this video, "heaven when I ride you" ... the song is a great analogy for the love of winter and riding snow.
