Yep, that's right, on Saturday September 23 I skied sacajawea with a couple friends. It was fucking sick to get up and acctually get some skiing in. Hit a few rocks, but nothing serious. I recomend it to all.
me too! i just got back a few hours ago. It was pretty sick to be skiing. I got a run of about 350 vertical feet. I was skiing just as the sun set and the snow was super hard. The run was pretty steep, probably 35-40 degrees and at one point the width was as wide as my skis. Definitly enough coverage though, well kind of.
dang, thats awesome. we got some nice runs in a couple nights ago on the "silver knife" run at big sky- it was holding 6 to 8 inches in some spots, nice and soft and powdery. few hundred feet of verticle. lovin this early season skiing.
a few shots of the journey. sorry that there are not any skiing shots, but it was getting dark quick as we were rippin our line and we didn't have much time to take pictures.
i was going to drive to frasier lake but it was gettting super late, so we just went up sacajawea. There were a handful of different lines to ski. the one we skied was about 20 feet wide then taped down to the width of my skis, then opened back up for a few hundrend verts to shred. the snow was super hard though, but i am not going to complain. it was a lot of fun. the recent warm weather probably will make it impossible to ski now.
I was up biking at Big Sky yesterday for their last day and there was enough snow in a couple spots in the bowl to make some turns. Unfortunately, that also meant there was snow on the northern aspects of the lower mountain as well, which made for some interesting riding.
Hahaha I saw that little thing, even took a picture of it. If you would have hiked another 4 miles you would have had enough snow to make one 5 times that size.
