great reports, I missed out on the snow last week in CO; I really toyed w/ the idea of heading to SLC but then a good storm was forecast midway (didn't pan out much) Skiing rules keep on getting it!!



EC, I talked to a guy on the pass who just got back from Alaska --his brother had a heli drop wedding planned months ago (wow!) --he said conditions were the worst ever



I'd love to see one of EC's patented/color-coded Google Earth route maps of all you guys have hit

EC will post a more extensive TR of his exploits once the trip is over and the camera is done firing. Its not done firing. Kudos to EC for the amount of turns he has earned, he has been out touring like crazy and has covered a ton of terrain.

How was the snow stability up there, EC? That looks like a sick shot, but it's a nice natural terrain trap with the way it funnels down, too. ;) (end armchair QB'ing now)
