I’m a snowboarder. Yesterday my friend and I went on a side country (backcountry accessible from the resort, not patrolled, much more inherent risk) adventure in waist deep snow and old growth forest and while we didn’t hit the line we intended to hit we still had a great time. The only tracks we saw were animal tracks. And lower down, a ski track from someone with similar ideas to us.
It’s really fun to navigate all the drainages and pick out a good line while not getting injured or too far from each other. The snow was phenomenal. We had insane wind and upslope snow showers for like two weeks that just dumped a ton of snow on certain aspects.
In a warming world where snow is less common than ever it feels really special to be out there. As special as seeing the milky way from my backyard on a clear night.
