On thursday got to pick off the headwall and the northwest coulior.  Spent two nights on the arm.  I figured it was easier then the long traverse there and back ive been doing.  Brought enough food for a small army, hoping we could stay longer and ski, but weather warmed up quicker then thought it would.  Over all a great trip and had some awasome skiing.

video is here for youre viewing pleasure.

wow!  great video and nice work!

Awesome guys. Beautiful.

Nice work and great video!  I've always wanted to do a line off of Shuksan.

What camera do you use for your videos? 

Nice video!  Must have been something to have nice powder like that all the way down the NW Couloir!


Sick stuff, Adam.

thanks all, its def my favorite mountain for getting good pow turns in, the Northwest couloir is a must for those looking to get 3 k of 45 degree turns in.

awesome, and my favorite sigur ros song too.

Great turns, man.

Pretty epic vid guys!

Awesome man!! Been really enjoying your videos.

I like the reverence and caution you had on this trip and in the video.

Good work.


yeah, very cool--nice twofer.  looks like you hit the conditions right!

I had to turn the vid off, I was so wracked with jealousy.
Rockin'

like sex, only better
thanks for reminding me

Heck Yeah, Boys!

Way to capitalize on the weather!

Great vid man. I love seeing movies with soul. And what great freakin' skiing. Yes, this is now on my list of things to do!

Great clip of the snowboarder at 4:45 - sets a fine backcountry line.
