Would like to say it was awesome, but.....there is only so much skiing off of the North Peak triple. Summit quad and Sunbowl quad were on wind hold all day. Rightfully so as it was whipping. People were pissed.

Didn't ski any bumps. Ventured into the woods off of North Peak a bit. I think the area is referred to as Tin Cup. With a little summer clean up there would be some real nice lines out there. Wind affected snow for sure. Strange to see little slabs breaking off at Sunapee.

Soft snow offered a good opportunity to hit some jumps in the terrain park. Haven't done that in a couple years.

Of course it all looks pretty lame through the eyes of the GoPro :razz:.

Edit to give the Winger shout out!

Hardly. Love when you got tangled up in the underbrush. The 3 through the GoPro was wicked bad ass, and I think I saw some "rollin' down the windows" on one jump. Sweet.

Looks good! Hope wind holdsds won't be an issue tomorrow

The little bit that was open today got hammered, but there's a lot of stuff that was untouched. Hopefully they get it opened for you.

:lol: The good, the bad and the ugly. It just wouldn't have worked with the tunes if I edited out the flailing.

It is called Tin Cup. I have also heard it referred to as Tin Can. Did you hit the line skiers left with the two drops? I will be there today.

I must have been too far to skiers right. Can't believe how many people were tracking it up. Ran into a patrol who was skiing out there.

Should be good today.

Great vid! And nice work on the 3! That was cool segment through the park. It's nice hit jump after jump after jump without stopping.

It was really good. They did groom the crap out of the trails though. I stayed in glades mostly. I made some first tracks on off map stuff. I also got first tracks down lifeline. Good day.

We've got to meet up sometime. I'd like to do some more woods exploring but don't like going solo.

Nice vid! Mind if I ask what mount you're using on the gopro?

Thanks. It's just the "curved adhesive mount" that came with it.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the AZ Video Crew for using normal/good music in their videos. Thank God you don't use that random crap no one has every heard of; like every ski video I see on Outdoor TV.

I will let you know next time. BTW. I got stuck in some brush like you did over in Tin Cup. I did not take take the normal line that dumps you out above the Duckiing lift. I ended up below 10 ft. cliff band closer to Goosebumps. Couldn't even link anything turns. Kinda had to bushwhack it through.
