^ sick photo.
full moon and zero degrees early but no wind. then bluebird. plan was to check conditions in couple zones but skiing was off the charts in the first, super floaty, and pretty amazing. didn’t see anyone so just kept skiing it. quiet. only saw two groups of skiers until exiting. done before noon and the uac was there grilling up some fine bacon in spruces. best turns of the year so far.

^ Agreed nice work!
Got up early on Saturday, woke the wife up, begged for a ride to LCC, she obliged with conditions for child watching, got ride... EMMAs was firing nicely, then at 1130 / 12 it became unbearable. Never ever had to scrap the base of my ski off with a credit card 3 times to get down. Up until that point... Face shots kept coming.
I write this with a screaming child next to me without a wife in sight. Im still pretty sure I won out haha.You took too much man, too much, too much

Was pretty excited to catch the Ballroom rope drop yesterday. Caught fresh snow on E Greeley and Catherine's yesterday as well.

Wow, so many close calls so far this weekend in complicated steep north/northish terrain. The snowpack structure is garbage there. You aren’t smarter then Mother Nature.

In other news, I hear the resort skiing is getting good and the crowds aren’t too bad. Mountain Dell was pretty good yesterday and Nordic skiing is still unpopular if you just want exercise and hate people like me.When life gives you haters, make haterade.

Sounds like Brighton patrol is on scene of an accident in the backcountry. Hope everyone is ok.

Time spent skiing cannot be deducted from one's life.

From UAC this morning:
Of note: was an avalanche out of Hidden Canyon near Brighton Ski Resort. This avalanche was on a northerly facing slope at 9,600' in elevation. It failed roughly 600' wide and anywhere from 2-4' deep, running into a nasty terrain trap that terminates into thick trees. The avalanche was reported by someone else to Brighton Ski Patrol, and upon inspection, it showed two tracks entering the avalanche with no tracks coming out the bottom. Brighton & Solitude Ski Patrols were called into the scene, and they were able to use Recco, along with two dog teams, to search the debris field. Luckily it was determined that nobody was caught in this avalanche. Please, if you trigger an avalanche, report it. There is no need to put others in harm's way if nobody is caught in the avalanche.The whole human race is de evolving; it is due to birth control, smart people use birth control, and stupid people keep pooping out more stupid babies.

showed up at 9:45 on Saturday and wildcat was maybe 75% full? maybe less? basically no traffic in the canyon and lift lines were minimal. it felt too good to be true... i'm interested to see how the holidays pan out.

I gotta say...weekend #1 of parking reservations at Alta was pretty awesome being a season pass holder. yeah it's annoying to make a reservation, but seeing parking lots full by 9 at Brighton, Solitude, and Park City, it sure is nice rolling up the LCC at 10 am knowing I'll have a spot in the Wildcat lot and not rushing to get up there earlier than I want to.
Didn't hurt having bluebird days and terrain openings with some tasty turns.
All that said...fuck the targeting of dawn patrollers and the 6-8am 7 days/week parking BS.
