oh, he deals 'em off
off the top
ties 'em off
fills it up
with his past
gets carried away

Close to a foot of snow fell at Big Sky last night and this morning.



Upon arrival at the mountain, just after 9 a.m., we proceeded directly to the top of the mountain on the Lone Peak Tram.



We did not pass go.



We did not collect $ 200.



We were, however, a tad excited about the conditions.





oh, half his life
a hand me down
wasted away
oh, he fills it up
with the love
of a girl




Coming off the peak from the tram, the snow was so deep, and the slope so steep, that as I carved rapid turns directly down the fall line, I was "barreled."

The snow shot up from my front edge and went over my head.

As I crouched, it felt like I was surfing in the barrel of a wave.

Amazing.



Pure. Untouched.



oh, he left it alone
drilled the pain
with money to buy
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway




Chris took a photo of me, throwing up some fresh.



oh, he chose a path
heavy the fall
quarter to four
fills his night
with the thought
of a girl




how he makes his getaway



how he makes his getaway



how he makes his getaway



how he makes his getaway.

Where do you put your camera when your boarding? So it doesnt break when you do a faceplant.

Very very very nice. I can barely ski (can snowboard only slightly better), never really mastered stopping. Or turning. Pretty much have going straight downhill fast as a bullet figured out though.
