What was the single most satisfying run you took this season? If you skied in the West or Europe tell us your East first cause that’s where we all ski the most.
East – The first day Cloudspin was open (Whiteface) after a good size dump, they had already blown a good deal of snow on it. You had to cut over to it from Upper Skyward cause there had been a lot of wind the day before and the top entrance was wind blown and closed. Hardly anyone was doing the cut in the beginning of the day and mostly we had it to ourselves. It was natural on top of a good man made base, a little less then knee deep. It was like floating on a cloud. Then at the bottom we cut across to Lower Skyward where they where still making snow, the conditions there where perfect too.
I did many laps after that, all where good, but the first one was the best. I guess because I knew it would be good, but didn’t expect it to be that good.
West – Outer Mongolia Bowl at Vail. As far skiers left as you can go and stay in bounds. It’s not the steepest terrain in the world, but that day it held the snow the best. To skiers left there is a big pine glad with all sort of pow stashes. In there was my best run. This is a picture from there of me coming out of a stand of trees there. A stand out day of incredable bowl skiing, but this one stood a little above the rest.
