Wheeler Farm Loops

AM - Main Chute + some other Baldy chute I don't know the name for + one more lap off the high traverse. Excellentness, especially Main Chute.

PM - 9 miles (4.5 w/ Andrea).

AM1 - Suicide Chute [1500']. It was awesome on Saturday so we went back for another round before the choke melts out. Today was even better.

AM/PM - Closing day lift skiing at Snowbird. A very formal affair.

PM - 9 miles (4.5 w/ Andrea).

This puts me at 96 days of skiing this season. At this point I might as well go for the century mark. Unfortunately it is about to get way too hot so I think I only have until the upcoming weekend and then I'll probably hang 'em up for the summer. The last four days were so much fun... easily our best Memorial Weekend ever... spring skiing and sunshine makes me very happy!

AM - Baldy / Main Chute [2500']. Kept the long weekend momentum rolling. The snow below the chute needed another hour to soften up, but I had to get to work so I had to do some choppy combat skiing.

PM - 9 miles.

AM - 10 miles.

PM - 10 miles (5.5 w/ Andrea).

Tonight I lost nearly 7" of hair. I wasn't allowed to have it longer than Andrea's at our wedding. The sacrifices and compromises that I make... I should get a medal for this one!

AM - 9 miles.

PM - 9 miles.

AM - Collins lap w/ Andrea [1800']. We were planning on Baldy Chutes but one stupid cloud in the wrong place kept the snow frozen and we couldn't wait around.

PM - 10 miles (~5 w/ Andrea and Alistar the dog).

AM - Pipeline Couloir + Red Stack NE face [4800']. A fantastic morning. Caught the Pipeline in even better conditions than when we skied it last year, and then wrapped around and skied a new (to us) line on Red Stack to up the adventure ante. We were able to ski back to within 100 feet of the jeep at Creekside, which is sort of unbelievable considering the lower elevation and the fact the temperature is pushing 150 degrees (or something in that ballpark).

PM - 9 miles (4.5 w/ Andrea).

I really like this panoramic.

Squeezing out every last possible turn.
