I made a terrible mistake. I went skiing on a powder day at Alta with two young guys…WHAT was I thinking?

Spring Powder
March 31, 2014 was supposed to be springtime – it was – and I sprung out of bed into some sweet fresh powder. Enjoy 90 seconds of my fun…
What a Powderful Day
Below are two videos shot yesterday, March 18, 2014 on a glorious powder morning. I was wearing a chest-strap and using my new GoPro HERO3+. I felt all alone skiing in the trees. Heck, I was virtually all alone. How wonderful. The first video is pretty much top-to-bottom in one take while the other is a compilation of several runs with me whooping it up…
Powder Skiing in Spring, Part One
It was the second day of Spring, March 21 2013, and the night before it had snowed. I had the extreme joy of skiing 6-8 inches of fresh powder, first tracks, for several hours. Here’s just a taste of it. Canyons Ski Resort is an awesome place to ski and their season truly lasts until mid-April. The advantage of coming up now is it’s less crowded but the conditions are actually as good now as any other time this season. The whoops you here are ME having the time of my life!
Powder Skiing in Spring, Part Two
Part II of this amazing day of Powder Skiing at Canyons Ski Resort is different because it is all tree-skiing. I took three runs in The Condor Woods, entering at three different places, but ending up in the infamous Canis Lupus each time. The Canis Lupus is a natural 1-mile long gully/half-pipe that is truly awesome. I didn’t expect the slight adventure I had on my 3rd run in getting into the Canis, but stay tuned at the end of this video for a surprise ending. All turns out fine but it was a fun adventure and a truly memorable day! Powder skiing is the best!
