I skied The Canyons today with Conrad and JP. Peak 5 and Ninety-Nine Ninety were both surprisingly good.

Sam and I skied The Canyons, then we left and we skied Park City.
Who wants to go to Brian Head this weekend?
I think they called it a “Fakie-to-Fakie 720.” Check out the video from this year’s X Games Big Air.
I rode PCMR with my parents and family friends Michelle, Andrew, and Casey. We skied some groomers on Crescent, some trees under Pioneer and hiked Jupiter from McConkey’s. The sun was out all day. Not a bad day. About time for some snow though.
Unfortunately, none of these storms are expected to drop more than an inch or two.
Lyrics Born and Chali 2na in the same week?!? Adam Fehr circa 2004 would have had a heart attack,
Today was my first day of the season at The Canyons. It was also my first day this season skiing park. I got to the hill a little late and found Jersey doing some laps in the “Respect” Terrain Park. We hit a few jumps before making our way to the terrain park off Saddleback Lift. We slid some boxes and hit some more jumps. Then made our way back to the car.

I loaned $25 in Kiva money to a baker in Peru. Ms. Carmen Ita Alfaro Calderon is trying to buy a new display case and ingredients for her shop. I tried to find someone opening a bagel shop, but a Peruvian bread baker will have to do. I’ll donate more as soon as Joseph in Lebanon pays back my old loan for his bakery.
I skied PCMR with Freys, Karla and Sam. We started out skiing some powder in the trees off 10th Mountain. Then we did a few laps on McConkey’s before heading to Main St for lunch.
After lunch, we did some hiking. First the trees above Jup Access and then Pineone. The snow was pretty good in both places It was a little heavy on Pinceone, but the hike made it worthwhile.
Then we went really fast on some groomers. Overall, we skied from 9:30 – 3:30, one of the longest ski days of the year.
We got a little bit of snow during the night. PCMR reported 6″ of new. I worked a little in the morning and got to the hill a little after eleven. I spent most of the day hiking around Jupiter. I skied Pioneer Ridge to Jupiter Access, Pioneer Ridge to West Face, Scott’s Bowl, Pioneer Ridge to Puma Bowl, and a few other runs, finding some surprisingly good snow in a few spots.
It was my best powder day at PCMR this season. Hopefully, we’ll get a little more snow tonight and I’ll be back to do it again tomorrow.

I skied PCMR with Sam and Mike Kisow. It took a while to find a parking spot due to Sundance. It wasn’t much more than a just a fun cruiser day. Great weather. Lots of going fast.
We somehow ended the day with VIP tickets to the Chali 2na show at Harry O’s. My second time seeing the “verbal Herman Munster” in the past three months. I’m not sure if he’s a good entertainer or if his voice just makes you pay attention to the show, but I had a great time.
