great day with the boys up on lolo pass popping off things. Clear skies and deep snow made for a perfect day to end 2016 properly. What a year its been. I ho...
some stuff from our last decent dust on crust storm a couple weeks ago. Temps hitting 60 this week things are gonna get weird.
tuesday at lolo pass was slow and floaty. a pillowy dreamworld.
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.
Had a party for the baby jesus at The Downing Mountain Lodge. some wise men brought that loud. Then it snowed, so we made angry dad turns.
The snowpack has settled out and allowed for exploration beyond snowbowl's boundaries. Lots of fun revisiting old lines and looking for new ones wit da boice...
got weird in the spanish peaks. Got me stoked for spring/summer couloir hunting!!
Celebrated diversity by participating in the whitest sport on the planet.
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.
The lifts have stopped turning at the bowl. Time to start exploring! Kicking it off with a Missoula classic in perfect bluebird pow, good ole Stuart peak. So happy my knee is holding up! lots of spring missions ahead.
repeat of yesterdays hot lap Lolo tour with more yayo sprinkled on top. See you at Lost Powder Mountain Trail tomorrow for trench town.
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...
Checking out old zones. Trying to remember how to ski before the next big storm hits. Feeling like half a bitcoin.
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.
doing summertime things to numb my brain until shred season
Been poking around some old stashes and some new ones trying to find that white gurrrl.
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 ...
Smoking jazz cigarettes and breathing aggressively. Summer skiing is fucking awesome.
Im ready for real skiing, but messing around on Carlton Ridge has been keeping me happy.
skinning, skiing, p-dog, fires, chains. sunday was fun as fuck. dumping right now. all is good.
survival skiing on Suncupped garbage riddled with fallen rock debris. Neat times exploring a new zone tho. A little earlier perhaps for next year.
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
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!
Missoula keep doing your fishing and fat biking. I will keep doing my skiing.
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.
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.
