    Looks sweet, thanks for posting up. First two pics kind of caught me off guard as I was wondering how you got two different skiers in the exact same spot in the exact same position. But I guess its the same photo eh.

    Hell yeah!

    V and I skied the Pass 12/31 - 1/2 and it was similarly rad, although I was too cold to take pictures and too lazy to haul my camera gear with me. We're definitely coming back for more this season.

    Sickness. $$$

    On the photo nerd side, the trees look over-sharpened and the foreground under-sharpened. Maybe it's also a contrast issue? Whatever it is, my eyes are finding the background distracting, or at least drawing attention away from the pow cloud. It's entirely possible that you applied the same settings to the whole image but it just comes across that way. Totally subtle but for whatever reason it jumped out at me.

    Yeah. Ive got a couple more from that day that turned out exactly the same way. Big pow cloud and not a person on sight. Next time Im near a computer I can shoot them off to you if you want.

    Lookin forward to your TR and seeing what you guys got up to the other days you were here.
