No way! We saw a plane flying around, can't believe that was you! We were snomoing around Little Shuteye Peak.
Doing a little flying of our own.
Thats DEEP powder. No trees were harmed in the taking of this pic.
Riding into this creek would be a bad idea.

Fluffy! That creek looks like a death trap!
Yeah, we saw one other plane up there too. Tons of clouds made it sketchy but dramatic. Shot over 370 photos. Some for the new Tollhouse guidebook.
Saw a big Balloon, some eagles, a fish, a crocodile, and one lost bird buried in a ton of snow among other things ... ;)
Very fun.

BIG air could be had off the top of the Aerie. Landing is probably a little too flat, though.
Too cool. I'd break out the backcountry skis if I lived closer.

Grahm, Go Pro... my buddies use them while surfing.
On a dynamic sport route it'd make good footage I think!
Can't wait to check it out when I get home. any wipeouts?

Me too. 'Cept, like many, I've been doing it vicariously thru satellite imagery since before Google sat. and earth existed.
One of hundreds in my dusty old collection:
A plane flight would be a lot more fun.
That's some marvelous looking fluff Grahm!

Oh ya, there is boarding opportunities. If you know the climber Mike B from Bass Lake he and his buddies ride in on snomos and cross-country/downhill locally.
I wiped out good on a hill climb. Just waiting for my buddies to finish editing down the footage.
Another foot of snow coming in!
