Yes I Canyon!

So on tuesday, I found out you really can have it all. We decided to try some new terrain, and we heard it was bangin' so Joel and I went to check out the Canyons.




Once again the weather was with us. The Canyons had also gotten hit pretty good with the storm. (It's been snowing every 2 days) Couple that with the slow midweek traffic, and you are looking at another BANGIN' day on the hill. The Canyons is the biggest place Ive seen so far, and honestly we didnt even get to hit all the lifts. Its really really big.
Anyway, The sun was shining, and we hooked up some tree lovin in the morning. Powder runs down some technical, steep trees. goo.


Then we decided to hit the face that the highest lift services. I never hike. But this was worth it. Plus it wasnt really hiking. It was a walking traverse. No uphill. 12 minutes and we were dropping in on the steepest, most open, untracked powder I've been in. We were up there for an extra minute or so shuffling to find the appropriate music on the ipods. (you know how it is)



Even though it was sunny, it was still close to single digit temperatures. Joel rearranged his hat to "lock in the freshness" otherwise known as heat. Good move. cause it was cold as hell.





After the powder, we ended up finding the parks. One small one and one big one. We hit the small one first. It was a nice easy little one. I still suck, but I didnt case anything too bad. After the parks, we hit a couple speed runs off, cause the place was so empty, and on the trails it had stayed really smooth. So we hit powder trees, dropped in on an open face, hit the park, had some beers, and then sped our way back to the car. Ahh.. we did it. All of it.


Now my count stands at 7 1/2 days. Bang. Totally bang.
