MLK Day in the Winds

Blue Sky Powder Day
Southern Wind River Mountain, Shoshone NF
January 15th, 2007

Headed into the stash we've been nibbling on for the last few weeks. There seemed to be more snow, no wind and blue sky today. Cold as heck though. Somewhere around zero degrees.

Karla breaks trail for Chuck and I all the way in. Hard to beat a deal like that!

Before.

After.

We all agreed that this was the best powder we've ridden so far on this hill, this year. Not as dense as last week. Good stuff!

Looking down on our first run of the day. We ended up getting four more, scattered out all over the mountain. It was a great day.

Chuck surfs it up on his second run for the day.

Another look at our second runs.

You know it's a good day when this guy starts thinking about hucking.

Whaahoooo!

The landing.

A look at some of our lines on our way up for more.

Karla slides into the pow.

From the top.

Mmm, Mmmmm good!!!

A look back at a few of our runs.

Chuck and Karla make the climb for one more.

Down she goes!

Chuck rides off into the sunset.

What a day, much better than the day before- as far as turns go anyway.
