God I love spring skiing. Endless pow and snorkel worthy turns. I'm not a meteorologist, but I'm guessing we're going to get a foot a day straight through July based on this weather pattern.

Also, congrats to Dex Mills (NS'er) on his 2nd place finish and Sickbird award at Freeskiing Nationals earlier this month.

Hope you enjoy :)

Any one of those single runs would beat my best day skiing ever. That was amazing. I just got ridiculously stoked watching that. The perfect day ever...

Where was that? Was it all hike/skin access? Looked like Utah, but I don't know exact areas.

i believe it was mostly little cotton wood, far tiger trail traverse and scottys bowl.  accesible from snowbird.

All Utah (Snowbird actually). Few different zones, but none of it was hike/skin to. Some traversing.

OneArmedWonder pretty much nailed it, all Gad Valley area with some White Pine in there. Super fun tree skiing.

Cheers & Thanks for the (+) comments!
