the new year has turned and i've spent the last 4 days up at kwood (kirkwood), i'll post some photo's later - i think the word for the last 4 days would have to be epic. Epic snow (about 10 feet in 4 days), epic adventure (10+ hrs in the car). The journey here was took over a day when usually it takes 3 hours. Road closures and traffic pushed us around the back entrance and even then the road was still officially closed, nevertheless we pursued. and the amount of snow here is incredible. boarding in the powder is indescribeable - like you're floating on clouds down the mountain. today i went down the "2 sisters" shoot - which was awesome - you have to hike around the backside of the ridge and the winds were howling you feel totally isolated as few venture out there - i imagined what it would be like to climb everest while i was back there - crazy fun.
