Smoking jazz cigarettes and breathing aggressively. Summer skiing is fucking awesome.
No biblical storms around here in west central Montana, but cold temps, small crowds, and consistent snow has kept things legit.
Thanks to all that gave us truck rides and snowmobile bumps. Great times exploring the roadside attractions of beartooth pass. Cant wait to go back and rally some tbar laps at the basin and do some more poking around. RIP transfer case.
Skiing corn in november is fun, but confusing. Snow is in the forescast. Come on winter!!
ending powder days with a hike up tv mountain is a snowbowl tradition. With a proposed lift going in soon this stony zone may never be the same. #savetvmountain
Set out with low expectations as we were hiking thru 50 mph winds. This was the only zone that didn't get completely wind smashed. So fun sending with the crew.
Had the day off from work to vote, so I went skiing. Weird snow, bad viz, bad ankle, bad binding, shark fins everywhere. pretty much a perfect day!!!!
Been poking around some old stashes and some new ones trying to find that white gurrrl.
Expected rain and shitty snow. But we remained optimystical and things got more awesomer.
checking out a little mini golf zone after the wind fuct everything else.
hiked up hillz and skied decent snow and some variable weird snow. Really fun to get some sun and good cardio for my fat ass.
Got some loose beta about being able to drive to the trailhead of St. Marys in the bitterroots. Not so much. Tacked on a bunch of vert and mileage. Made the ...
This past winter was full of shitty days. Here are a couple shots from the less shitty of the days. Skiing rules.
It snowed a very little bit up in the high country, but of course we had to investigate. The way up looked pretty bleak. Then we found where the wind had blown all the snow off the top of the mountain and created a little snow oasis. It wasn't much but it was enough to make me feel happy again.
2 laps deep in the Rattlesnake Wilderness Area on old Mosquito Peak. The 2nd chute was a new one for me and the choke point did not fill in that great this year obv. Always sketch guinea pigging a line that no one has skied all year. Big line season is upon us. Jazzed for more marathon days in ze mountains.
Toured a little bit last week and found some decent stuff that was not sun/wind fukked. Corn skiing has now taken over with no storms on the horizon.
got weird in the spanish peaks. Got me stoked for spring/summer couloir hunting!!
Skied down to lantern lake off the north face of lolo peak. Twas very fun.
The thick wildfire smoke cleared for one day so we could ski some dirty patches. Thank you baby jesus.
tuesday at lolo pass was slow and floaty. a pillowy dreamworld.
I've been drooling over the Mission Mountains since I moved to Montana and yesterday I finally got up there. Despite some mild bushwhackage and variable snow it was a great day to preview the vast potential of this visually stunning range. I will be returning soon...
Its crunch time. I have to join society again soon and the snowpack is bleeding away rapidly. So we rallied north to Glacier National Park's east side to look for some wintry turns and get out of the rain. Turns out they are hurting for snow too, but we found some fun. Can't wait to come back here during a normal winter.
