My favorite that Blurred and I came up with 15 years ago is getting "gurled" or "tubbed" aka la-z-boy.

Aka hucking into deep powder and laying back as the powder flies up between your legs and hits your face.

Aka tub girl.

Hero dirt exists in UT for about 20 minutes twice a year. Which makes it all the more infuriating when dozens of tossers shuttling the Crest are hollering about it while high-fiving their bros and wiping moon dust from their fucking grills. It's UT, land of all things that are dry.

Brown pow, well, I've used it a couple of times at the height of biking season. I deserve a pedal to the shin for it.

Agreed, annoying. Quit calling that face shots. You can do that on a groomer.

I came for the winter but stayed for the summer.

Cliche. And no you didn't. You followed a boy here and once you discovered your Cleveland 4 bucket head translates to a Jackson 8 you decided to stay and hook up with sponsored skiers and fishing guides.

Not a specific phrase, but anytime I see some instagram superstar mountain person get all serious and introspective, or poetic and spiritual, I cringe and wanna hurl. If I'm in the mood to read something profound I'll go and do just that, I don't need some dumbass letting loose with a 5th grade command of the language to remember that being in the mountains is awesome.

At altitude, a no cloud, blue sky is flicking intense. And we call it bluebird.

I guess I’ll give the op that used in the wrong context “bluebird” could be annoying, but when you have ^^^ what else you gonna call it?

Yup, that term became extremely annoying 20 years ago - Extreme Coffee!

This piece is a critical element of getting your kit dialed for slaying those bluebird day missions.

Yeah this is really what annoys me the most, got a buddy that uses it ALL the time as in, it’s SO bluebird today, or it’s NOT very bluebird out, or do do you think it’s going to be bluebird tomorrow....? there’s a time and place it’s appropriate, it’s using it all the times it’s not that makes it feel like ice picks in my ears.

"3d snow" has always been one that confuses me. PSA- WC is getting a big storm and should be dense goodness or "hero snow" and not the "blower" that we used to get.

I feel like 60% of the outdoors instagram stars are like that . Reason I'm no longer on it (+ I'm too susceptible to FOMO).

You just need some mountain therapy, maaan.
When I’m skiing, everything just goes away. I’m one with the mountain.
