The Search for Pow

My search for fresh deep untouched powder continues. After a mostly dry and humbling January, February hopefully presents itself with many more possibilities. I know you guys believe that to. Received this from one reader…

No worries mate I’m brewing one hell of a storm for us and will be bring it with me, so get your snorkles out

Snorkels you say? Awesome.

Looking for the snow from above

Ariel views not showing much.

Beaver Creek as seen from the sky.

Back on land, blue skies pushing through.

Jerry on the ground investigating.

I like the arm style Jerry.

Who you looking at?

Small line at Cinch express at Beaver Creek.

Are those snow capped peaks I see?

Nice CO horizons.

The golf course in the distance covered with snow.

Warren Miller

The outpouring of feedback and comments we received on our short tribute to Warren Miller was amazing. Far and wide, but overwhelmingly in agreement. We received this from one reader

Bummed out about WM

To say the least, more like this when I first heard of his death…from another reader

Sad about Warren Miller

But comments and follow up from another reader explained it …

Reader: A True Legend

Me: So you knew Warren Miller?

Reader:No I read it on Facebook

Another great tribute on the man can be found here:

Smith: Farewell until we meet again, Warren Miller (column)

And to my friend, who sent me this signed pic from Warren Miller to his family; you were passed the touch. I get it now.

That’s awesome. Simply awesome, my friend.

May we continue to remember how Warren Miller shaped our image of skiing and all the things we love about it. RIP WARREN MILLER

HELI SKI

Does anyone know a reliable inexpensive heli operation out of Whistler-Blackcomb?  If so hit me up!  The mountains in Whistler are calling my name!

The Beav as seen from the golf course.

Is it time for some fly action already?

Or maybe just some ice fishing

Usually we skin and debone it before devouring…that’s some cred
