I went to Wolf this past sunday, and conditions were great for the most part. Everything top left was closed (Bowl, Flame out, Timberwolf, etc.). We went down Flame Out a few times, which had powder in some places and weeds in others. All the other runs from top right and down were awesome.



No pictures but here are some videos. ContourHD attached to my friends boot.



Viewfinder to Lower Streak to Broadway





Viewfinder to Powder Hill to Whistling Dixie to Broadway (you get to see my crash because I suck)





and dropping into Flame Out...the video didn't turn out well because we were trying to avoid rocks. We stopped towards the bottom and he rode switch while I trailed him.

Thanks for the comments guys. It's definitely an interesting angle. I love the Powder Hill/ Whistling Dixie run when they aren't icy.

The camera was a ContourHD. It seemed smaller than a GoPro which is a plus. My buddy has a bunch of different mounting options for it also...neat stuff.
