Just curious, why did you traverse all the way to the right with this line?

FKNAAAAAAAAA

That's the point when the line starts to flatten out a bit. Thought I would try to bank off the left side and dig in for one last turn.

In hindsight, I left the 3 guys behind me a little more playing room.

Nice work Pappa G. It was a good day.

[Deep Days]

Like, nice nut grab, eh phish? (Maybe not the best execution ever, but it's the thought that counts in my mind. Good work!)

Some cool shots in there, NPG. But please for the love of God turn down the ISO a stop or two and open up the aperature. It's killin' ya.

[P_McPoser]

I'll be the first to contradict max. I love the style.

Where is THE HUCK PICTURE?!! You know EXACTLY what the fuck I'm talking about, Air-Jesus.

[Sphinx15]

Wow - sick man, some great pictures in there

[stihletto]

Was the snow still holding well on that shot off the headwall or was it getting a bit heavy?

I'm still surprised North Chute was untouched when we got up there around 11 AM.

The headwall was a little heavier than the true north facing aspects, but it skied really nice.

We debated about heading over to the Second Creek drops but opted for a line on Hidden knoll that only had one track in it. Unfortunately some other dudes snaked our line and we ended up bum rushing the whole thing to preserve our manhood.

Once again, it sucks we didn't run into eachother, I think you were dropping in off Hidden Knoll just as we rolled up.

I don't think it's killing me as it's a personal preference. Aside from that, I use this technique when the object is out of focus but the snow can still be preserved (i.e. cmsummit's Darth Vader sequence). In the last set of B/W pics, you'll notice some discoloration in the middle which was greatly more visible in the original color photos. Sure some of the photos could have been touched up a bit better, but people were bugging me to get this up and I had to go through over 800 pictures in a couple of hours.

I'll be the first to contradict max. I love the style.

Added above.
