storm skiing

I love storm skiing. There is simply something magical about it. The static quiet of the storm, the childhood wonder of a snow filled night and maybe most important - the deep powder turns.

Last winter the best of such trips was with Craig, 'stuck' in Rogers Pass for a few days while we skied our brains out. Always the first out and usually the last back we would string together big days of glorious powder skiing, trail breaking and synapse firing.


Criag at the top of 8812, Bruins Pass. We decided to go high the first day..we could feel the coming storm and knew it would be good..if we were lucky the highway might just close..
The RAV after 3 days..we stayed for 5 and logged about 30000 feet of vertical...man oh man its good. Godspeed and happy storm skiing to all!

Happy Holidays!
