Nice work.

Nelson is such a great town for apres ski.

Day 2 vibes were all time!!

Rolled out to Baldface Valhalla Cats
Logistics were pretty chill
- met up at the Playmor park and ride at 7:20
- hour ride to the base on a bougie bus
- pretty rustic sheds to gear up and get walkies + beacons (they make you use their house barryvox)
- cat up to a zone to practice beacon drills
- got up to the ski terrain by ~10:15.

2F stoked after the skis were on the cat.

We got super lucky; the 12 riders we had on our all cat were rippers (Minus 3) but the guides did not cater to the lowest common denominator and put us on rowdier terrain each drop.

Guides loved our group; let us ski and extra lap and ski it out to the cat. Rolled up to the drop zone an hour late (Cat 2 was a little salty) purely elated!!

Very nice.

Good work, kooks!

Where’s the meat?

If it was a meetup I wouldn’t be so disappointed

Nice trip. Looks like a good time sausage fest.

You guys like Dakine vests, eh? :)
Nice report - Red Mtn trees are pretty dreamy.

Skied WW the last 2 days, fun hill with a quirky vibe. 2 of the 3 chairs were not running and the lifties didn’t seem to know if they’d be running any time soon.

Met up with Sparkletart her boo thang — both rippers who gave us a proper tour of the hill.

Who actually needs powder baskets when you have a spare tube of caulk laying around.

This morning we went for a little walk to ski some fresh.

The restaurant at WW puts out some quality grub!

Heading back to Spokane tomorrow, it’s been an amazing trip. Our legs are wrecked; but our hearts are full from doing the thing we love so much. Can’t argue with the crew too; we laughed a ton, heckled each other, skied some mediocre terrain and crushed a decent amount of beer/whiskey.

Nice work mags, that's a hella solid team of rippers.

Stoked ya got some soft too, sweet to see.

Super fun hanging with you guys! My boo thang had a great time as well! Fun to share our scene with you stokers. Next time more freshies and more 'whackin. :)

Solid work gentlemen!

Rare 2funky sighting outside of his natural environment riding cables and diesel, opting instead for skins and calorie powered uplift [emoji33]

If you’ve never skied with us, this picture is a very good description of what to expect

I'm sold. Yes please.

Man the FOMO was real last weekend knowing all these shenanigans were going down. I’ll be sure not to schedule my son’s ski lessons during the trip next time. Looks like a good time was had by all!

Rad shot!

How many drunk mags does it take to cut a fresh pair of skins?

Attachment 444691




…apparently more than 3 because they still fucked it up.

Ha! I walked away before they ruined those things like they were a cheap hooker.

Very cool icicle shot! Nice you got the cloud ocean at red.
