It changed from summer to winter up here pretty much over night. It’s been snowing now for around ten days, the first storm began on the last day of September giving us no chance for an Indian summer. I’ve been watching the weather very close since the snow began in anticipation of my first turns.

I decided today was the day to get out and take a look at the snow. The way the storms have come in gave me a gut feeling it was getting good up high. I called a couple people to see if they wanted to go shred with no luck so I decided to go alone. It’s a strange feeling gearing up uncertain if you’ll be actually getting in some riding. I figured I’d just look around on my splitboard and see what was going on. I’m glad I did.

I was sinking in deep making it tough to break trail

As I got into the forest I got excited about making some turns
