Skiing has been good to start the new year. First weekend back from Christmas activities. Brian, Cole, and myself went out to check it out. Above, quick powder basket repair.
We headed out to our favorite White Pine spots. Brian sported some new lightweight skinny skis by movement - that seemed to ski pretty well.
Lap #2 of 3 up the Red Stack shoulder. Clouds were in and out all day making visibility a challenge.
This was one of our first big days of the year. We logged >6K of vert - Brian's knee keeps getting stronger.
Next Day - Cole and I headed over to Red Pine to approach the Lake Chute.
Skies cleared - and we were treated with incredible scenery.

Remarkable timing led to this photo capture.
The Lake Chute. Utah Transplants favorite ski run!
The following weekend we explored one of the canyons off the valley floor "Neffs".
There was a lot of pre-storm wind and graupel blowing in - but the settled snow still skied well.
Some of the views from the ridgline shared w/ Big Cottonwood were really cool.
We spent a long time on the ridge exploring and doing snowpack analysis before skiing back out.
Want to get back up there soon!
