Alpental for a little twilight action!

51: february 24th

Hyak with Lillie, her first full day with poles.

50: february 23rd

Alpental. This was the most people I'd ever seen at Alpental, but it led to maybe the best snow of the year. This was my first run (out of only four for a full day) with 'Ben', a guy I met in the Chair 2 line. This is somewhere high off Elevator. I'm sorry for the six-second gif. I had to. What a day for #50!

49: february 22nd

Alpental, Elevator to Heavenly Trees with Mark. 3 feet of heavy stuff and the first time I've worn the pontoons in 5 weeks made me feel lame, but it was fantastic the next day.

48: february 18th

KHMR Day 7: Mark drops into 'Pee Chute' (probably 'Horse Play') off RR for the last time.

47: february 17th

KHMR, Day 6: Tunnel Vision off CPR Ridge. Mark figured out the entrance. Definitely one of the best chutes there.

46: february 16th

KHMR, Day 5: 'Scary Chute', or 'Stampede.'

45: february 15th

The main chute off T2 - we did every ridge, peak and bowl this day.

44: february 14th

KHMR, Day 3. Shenanigans.

43: february 13th

KHMR Day 2 - the only 'powder' day we got. 46,000 vertical feet (9 super laps). The first is dropping into a virgin chute off redemption, the second is whitewall. We skied powder and wind chalk all day.

42: february 12th

Kicking Horse, Day 1. It hasn't snowed in a week, yet there's still plenty of great stuff in the chutes. This place is amazing. This one is 'lower scary', what I think KHMR calls 'one trick pony' off RR.

41: february 11th

Sunshine Village, aka Mt. Gaper. The most beautiful place I've ever skied. Negative points for me, the first time I ever choose to leave my safety gear at home, they have a locking gate to access the good stuff. FML.

40: february 10th

An afternoon at Revelstoke. Decent snow up top - didn't get to see much of the mountain. Standing gondolas get a big thumbs-down. This run was 'Jalapeno.'

39: february 9th

Alpental. Sean's early arrival resulted in some nice quality snow, even though it was old. Lillie is starting to love the trees.

38: february 7th

Crystal with Sam, Tom, and Andrew. Slashy pow turn!

37: february 5th

Night skiing at Alpental!

36: february 3rd

Pre-superbowl loop around Mt. Catherine. Shitty, rainy, all uphill, but hey my new grind was really fast.

35: february 2nd

Jessica is getting good! Beautiful day at Alpental on hard stuff.

34: february 1st

Lillie loves dancing on skis - a nice warm sunny day at Central, albeit on rock-hard-hardpack.
