Pole deep on the shoulder. Maybe slightly deeper. 40ish inches.
A slight layer of ice at the bottom of all this new snow. Maybe Saturday's stuff melting around. Any rocks we hit had the sheen of ice over them.

Second into main chute this AM. Nipple deep blower, didn't hit anything in the chute. Were a few sharks lurking after exiting, but the lower frozen layer from the warmer storm on Saturday is helping.

This is awesome.
Next major event is looking like it swings in from th SW- like through Central Cali/Tahoe then into UT. At least that's what the AM Nam and GFS models were looking like when I checked them this am.

I checked in to Alta craziness this morning about 7 and had 3 sweet laps on Greeley. Hit no rocks or anything, and I was on skinny skis! Saw maybe ~100 people spread out over Alta, but I'll take if for a last minute decision to go skiing in October. A lot of goods to be had out there, I was way surprised with how good this morning was.

A little nasty going up, but really nice for 10/27. Some face shots on the shoulder. As I was hiking, I ran into a guy who lost his ski on the Baldy shoulder. Bummer.

We started at the crack of 11:30am, cause I spend mornings wrenching on motos on October, not getting out of bed early to do something silly, like skiing.
Tom forgot his sunglasses.
Crowded in the pen, but who cares, everyone is smiling.
WTF? The entire mountain is tracked out, but what's that to the skiers left of Main Chute? By golly, nobody has skied that yet.
Still hasn't been hit.
Still hasn't been hit, but Main Chute is getting hammered by the herd.
Nice to be back in the hills.
Got to the top of Baldy and skied the line just skiers left of Main Chute. Hit maybe two rocks, the rest was pretty much perfect.
Went up for another lap. Normally I wouldn't post such shitty, blurry pics. But my camera is busted, and hey, it's October, so.........
Little billy goat to sneak in to the bottom of Main Chute.
Great day. Time to go ride motos for another month. See you then.

Not much different that being on a chair with folks from outa town who just are having a good time being where they are in the moment. As opposed to the "pain train" mentality in some spots.
That being said, I'm ready to take my Dukes and Factors into somebody's pool and start pissing...nicely of course.Not soliciting business through casual internet associations

Ordered dynafits as soon as i got home."If we can't bring the mountain to the party, let's bring the PARTY to the MOUNTAIN!"
