missing days like these. corn season is fun too tho.
celebrating 60 months of continuous skiing in western montana with pretty decent turns. Hoping the snow keeps up!
repeat of yesterdays hot lap Lolo tour with more yayo sprinkled on top. See you at Lost Powder Mountain Trail tomorrow for trench town.
Sunday brunch at the jazz studio before the heatwave fuct errything! reset time pleaze. Sorry for overuse of this song its just so lovely.
hauling skis on my back for miles wasnt painful enough, so I added a vessel to the pack. Such a fun day in the mission mountains.
First realish day of skiing in a long time. Hopefully its a huge winter!! dad airs for life!
Such a great vibe at this little summer setup. So nice to leave the skins at home and make lift laps!
Pretty cruisy up there on the Stanton Glacier. Feels good to wrap up another summer of skiing questionable antique snow. Ready for Rocktober pow to make it 48 months straight of noodling around in the hills.
Went snow hunting last weekend but we found some frozen shit. Always fun tho!
Who doesnt like unknowingly cruising towards a little death crack every now and then. Could have been ugly. looked deep and scary. Lucky to sneak in a great lap between the hail and lightning. Taking advantage of the higher elevation trailheads finally becoming accessible!
Skiing perfect corn in the sun is really hard to beat. Perfect day to check out some new to me terrain.
Staying high cause the rivers are all blown the fuck out, who cares fishing is for grandpas. summer ski season is shaping up quite nicely. the runnels are forming, cornices are breaking, and the sun cups should be knee deep soon enough.
survival skiing on Suncupped garbage riddled with fallen rock debris. Neat times exploring a new zone tho. A little earlier perhaps for next year.
This winter has been finicky. Finally got to catch a little air and do a little powders.
Super blower day touring some low angle stuff on a -30 degree day last winter.
Attempt at the west couloir of graywolf peak in the mission mountains. Huge day trying to conquer this beast while battling fussy weather. The skies finally cleared revealing that the main chute was too runnelled out to ski from the top, so we skied a spicy pincher chute looker's right. It was 3 inches on top of pretty firm snow, which made for one of the most intense lines I have ever skied. Spring skiing in full effect!!!
Celebrated diversity by participating in the whitest sport on the planet.
some clips from last weekend. Hyped for more this weekend, jazzed as
After a 3 week hiatus due to shit weather and working 12 days straight we lucked out with perfect weather for a legendary slog up to Gunsight mountain and the Sperry Glacier in Glacier National Park. No grizzlies and great corn. Cool to ski on a glacier that may not last our lifetime. All said and done it was a 17 hour day covering roughly 23 miles and 10k feet of up.
I enjoyed the shit out of this day but did not think it was going to be my last deep one. Fingers crossed for another good storm.
Classically hungover ski mission in the Mission Mountains last Friday September 30th 2016.
The Going to the Fun road opened in GNP. We tooled around and did a lot of short fun laps. We even had a chance encounter with a newschoolers celebrity.
