    Frigid Heli day in AK

    Man Owens your job must really suck, you have to ski down all those untracked runs that aren't even groomed. God I hate it when I can't see my skis

    Edit: Nice pics by the way

    Hey Chris,

    Tell Kent that his buds in St. Louis say "hello". We are jealous.

    Thanks,
