I spent the day in the trees today. Me = unexperienced in waist deep powder. Could barely make it down the hill by 2pm. So effin tired, but we were still able to make 4+ runs through the trees without crossing a single track. Pretty amazing for snow that's a few days old. The groomers in-between were a godsend for my legs. ha

My buddy (He's extremely good), decided to go through a section and I should follow him. Well, from previous years I remember this being pretty sketchy. I went around. 20 minutes later we meet up again at the lift, and he was as white as the snow. He ran into a unrideable section. Decided to cross a small stream next to a 25' waterfall(into some nice sharp rock). There was a small arch of snow over the river he figured he could cross. (He's quite experienced in the backcountry with his Snowmobile/board expeditions). Anyhow, the snow broke away, and he ended up being completely balanced on a tiny tree literally on the edge of the waterfall. Managed to carefully get out of his bindings and get to the other side. I've never seen him that colour before, and i've seen him do some wild shit. Jesus. Be careful out there boys.
