TR: East Ramp, Kessler Peak, Wasatch Mountains.

Been an excellent week of touring around the Wasatch. 7 Days straight of earning turns, couldn't be more stoked on the trip. Thanks as always to Telee and his wife who are the most gracious hosts in SLC and Skifishbum for giving us rides and getting us out every day on new terrain and fresh lines, both of you :yourock:

I have a shit ton of pics from everyday that have been going in the Wasatch conditions thread, but the last day before we had to catch our evening flight out, was one of the best tours I have been on in Utah on a super deep and aesthetic line. Figured this one warranted its own TR.


Participants were, 1thenaton1, Dowork, Skifishbum, non mags Topher and Pam.

We approached via the Argenta slide path off the BCC road.

Yes, I broke off from the group to try them out in some pow, chop and bumps one day. Went to Soli, pretty much lapped honeycomb with a hilarious southerner dude I met on the return chair and yeah- they kicked ass all over the place- They really are pretty much a perfect all around ski for all things storm day and batting cleanup.

Freakin awesome week though. Can't believe the touring we did, the snow was just so amazing every damn day. Huge thanks to Telee and SFB, those two make a hell of a hospitable team and that's putting it unimaginably lightly.

That last day was a perfect icing for the cake- long sketchy ass skin track, pea soup mystery drop ins, and AMAZING UNTOUCHED POW. The only other person we saw the whole day was Str8Chuter too haha... Kind of funny. In any case though, this tour was the tits. Barely made our flight out too but I wouldn't have had it any other way. The stink just reminded me of how rad it was haha

Now I'm off to put my feet up.

I had a feeling gettin there was gonna kinda suck for TC, and test his knee but he didn't even need to boot any of it. Them 205 r/r powboards didn't help:wink: but it's all about the
smile on that stoic studs face

:biggrin: while slayin the pow pow on his bdizzled megga fatties
bummed yous weren't afforded the cool veiws from the peak but a couple k of untracked wasatch pow a few days after a weekend storm didn't suck

there is no shame in riding lifts in Utah, and Texas is not the South:fmicon:

nice pics, glad you got some

GOOD GAME GUYS!!!:yourock:

rog

SO MUCH FUCKING WIN!

We have had several guests stay at the casa since living at the mouth of the Wasatch, but I have never had anybody stay who got after it like TC and DW. Those guys crushed it. And for anyone who has never seen TC's spirit and enthusiasm for skiing it should be mandatory viewing. The dude can barely walk and then he gets on a pair of skis and crushes it. It is truly inspiring.
You guys are welcome at my pad anytime!

SCORE!! Good timing on that trip for sure. Way to crush it!
