It's been so long since I've updated my 'pre-season' thread that I figured I'd start fresh... AK is still beyond amazing. It's a bit more rainy during the winter than we expected, but that's ok, because if it's raining at the base, that means there's a nice fresh coat of pow at the top. The typical Juneau pow I've experienced is a super heavy, wet snow. Occasionally we get the super light, fluffy stuff, but regardless what 'type' of pow it is, it's always amazing! Here are a few pics from the past few weeks.
Navigating through the endless frozen forest.
Searching for drops. We found some
Dustin on the lift, with Upper Insane in the background.
Trees are my new favorite place to be!
Bustin' through the heavy snow.
A wee little grab off a bump in the trees.
Those are probably not 'happy little trees'
Looking at Ben Stewart, the peak on the right, and the main chute on the ridge to the left is 'Sh*t for Brains'. Planning on checking that off the list by the end of the season.
Looking off the backside of Douglas Island towards Admiralty Island.
A good view of Stephens Passage and Admiralty Island. Pretty much the same shot as previous, but on a clear day.
Good golly I love AK.
