As promised, photos and videos from yesterday. Our objective on the day was not quite filled in enough to be skiable yet, but we made the best of it and had a few nice, steep lines from the Happo ridge.

The ridge was wind affected, the skiing was not.
The face of no return. Until there is more snow on it at least. Zach Paley photo.
Kaerazu, not filled in yet.
Steep and north. Zach Paley photo.
Opting out of Kaerazu doesnt seem so bad when you get to ski this instead.
This is not Cortina. Zach Paley photo.
Things are looking different this year. Can you figure out where this is?
Another addition for Creative Creek Crossings. Zach Paley photo.
I need to get to JAPAN ASAP.
That looks butt nasty.
THAT WAS SICK….

maybe its a boat!
Nice pictures and video (to Zach, too!). That kamoshika looked pretty scared! I didn’t see you in plastic bags for that stream crossing-getting wet? So where was that picture taken?
I think that kamoshika was digging the power almost as much as you were — if only you could suit him up with some skis he’d be the happiest kid in town
ahem, powder
gotta love primus
Beautiful! What a day you had! Don’t play in the water when it is so cold! And don’t terrorize the wildlife! Keep posting. Lu
