Super lame-o first-timer jong TR sans action shots because this is the first camera I’ve ever owned in my life and

nobody likes me

everybody hates me

I think I'll go eat worms

All taken on my last backside run when I actually bothered stopping, ie. 3:20pm.

I think I'll come tomorrow...

Yes, wednesday was pretty.

Except everyone had caught on that there was a dump the day before and so the lots were filled and the goods were shralped at a stupendous rate.

As things started to wind down, I went exploring for some little stashes and harvested some of the last remaining non-tree pow.

Came across this little bugger.

Whoever straightlined that through the knee-destroying branch and the ski-destroying rocks had huge cajones; or just didn't care. I pussed out.

Instead I trudged the ridge along the top of chief bowl because I had never done it before, thinking I'd find a sea of trees on the other side.

Eyegasm.

Taken at 2:20pm. Still virgin. Mr. snowboarder in the distance was all by his lonesome.

Of course I pussed out again because I'm told suffocation is a risk factor for death. So one last parting shot.

Incentive to stop reading avy books and actually pick up some avy bacon.

Back to my in-bounds quasi-existence and the last few runs of the day.

Incidentally, the clouds moved in and it started dusting again.

Oh yeah, this was LATE MARCH... I thought that was significant on the drive home.

The snow got really sticky up there today, felt really warm.

Yeah, the snow was really sticky today. The fog moved in, too.

Wish I could have been there McGovern...I mean Dug. Snow may have been sticky, but freshies aren't a thing to complain about in late March...right Sierra Crew?!

I heard he kept the tommys to a minimum. However on sunday I saw a pretty impressive one of his, I'm not sure if it counts though as he didnt touch the ground inbetween it was more like 1.5 front flips then splat.
