    Part 1 for my season edit-s

    It's been real good for Arizona this season so far. Hopefully it's not over.

    I still can't figure out how to get the vid actually on the page, if someone doesn't mind I would love a hand, thanks!

    I was also going to upload a bunch of photos but the first one was taking forever so I gave up.

    Sick. Flagstaff area looks superb. The trees are perfectly spaced for ripping!

    Looks amazing, great terrain. Some of the pics with snow covered trees remind me of the Kootenays up here in BC. Can't say I have ever been a fan of the chest mount p.o.v. footy though. The angle on the dangle just doesn't look right to me.

    Jason in the video gave me his old Atomic Blogs, fkn best ski I have been on in years! Hopefully they make it through the season. those Shiros were too much most of the time and when they were a good ski to be on I didn't really like the sidecut.

    @el hefe, I hear ya on the pov and chest mount but when we get the snow I have found this to be the fastest and easiest way to get footage. When you haven't had good snow for 4 and a half years I'm not to keen on standing around getting video shots so it is what it is. The trees during that one storm did remind us of BC too, that doesn't happen much here.

    Thanks for the support Everyone! More to come. hopefully.......

    Passed through Flagstaff end of March and I was really hoping for good conditions. Fun in the sun, but the snow was missing from the top of the mountain. Looked like a great place to ski pow.

    Ya the shit winds raped the upper mountain in February. It was real good before that. We don't get full seasons here most years, we get half seasons or at least for real winter like conditions.

    Part 3. This is just more raw footage. After minute 3 or so is a full length shot of Snow Slide Springs and my most fun line of the year. It's not gnarly or anything it just kept on giving, it's really loooong.

    Very nice! This is more amazing to me than any Alps or AK skiing. Are there many skiers I these parts?

    Hey thanks man! My edits aren't super rad or the gnar, we are just some old dudes who like ski touring but the location I guess might make it interesting. Most people don't think of skiing when you mention Arizona but it does happen here. We have a pretty sizable skiing community but barely anyone skis outside of the actual ski area so the back country has a very remote feel to it. I really like that about it.

    I'm totally intrigued these days by the less frequently visited location for some reason. Once I'm done with school I'm hoping to get into Nevada a lot and explore the mountains there.
