SICK!!!!!


Yesterday at Snowbird was one of those days you never forget. The canyon had been closed and had no estimated time of reopening, so me and Jake tried to figure out when to leave. The canyon opened sooner than expected and took us by surprise. We should have been in line waiting at 4 am. We ended up putting it together and rolling up around 11:30. Tram was packed so we went around the world. As we were heading up Little Cloud Lift, we saw patrol heading out Road to Provo dropping hand charges. So we hung out at the top for a few minutes waiting for it to open. We saw a patrolman coming from the top of Hidden Peak and sure enough he was coming to drop the rope. The energy building was off the charts! I yelled to Jake to buckle in and it was on!!!!! I dropped about a quarter the way out and Jake dropped just after that. It was unreal!!! First tracks on Little Cloud Bowl after 50 inches plus of snow!!!! It was one of those runs you never get out of your head. We hit the cirque the rest of the day for some good lines as well. Chalk another one up at the bird. We were too amped to get any action shots. Maybe one day we will hire someone to take pics for us.
