Trip to the Vet

Loki has another checkup. Her stomach is better and she is gaining weight again. I on the other hand am losing weight because I am outside being active. The weather is getting nice and my blogging has been falling off. I apologize, but bear with me and I promise some good photos every couple of days. Also, stay tuned for a guest appearance trip!!!

Ben Likes Wood

Man, Ben really likes wood. Every time I turn around he is in a tree or sawing something on the ground. Watch this video of Ben and some of his friends getting major wood.

Have QPer, Will Soar

So this quarter pipe went really well. It took 1 day to build, half a day to fine tune it, and then 1 more day to get a bunch of shots on it. I have a feeling they will be some of the Roxy ads for next season.

Neptune

I went over over to Neptune Diver's to shoot some photos. It was nice to shoot something else than snowboarding. A lot of thanks to Jason

Amberlanche!

So as Amber went to make a simple pow turn, the new 7 inches of snow decided to slide. It was to her back and despite our cries, she turned right into it and disappeared below the creek bank. Hayden and I grabbed our shovels and probes and headed down there to find her buried to the knees. Luckily it was fresh snow and was pretty fluffy even where it settled. It still gave us a good scare. See the moment of truth here.

Big Night Out

So the past few months I have only gone out a handful of times. Since my time here is running out I decided to go out one last hoorah. I started the night at Club Orange to listen to my buddy J2 spin some records. I then headed over to Todd's to see Bloodhag play. Scifi nerd metal, and they throw out reading material. I got a slight hangover and "Cromm: A Novel of Dark Fantasy"
Tomorrow we hit the slopes.

Salt Lake Spring

Spring is in full force in Utah. I don't mind this time of year in Salt Lake. The weather is nice, and the snow is melting fast, which means I am almost done for the season. A couple more hikes into the back country and I can retire my smelly boots for a few glorious months.

Heading Home

Time to turn tail and head back to Salt Lake for some spring shredding. No more hotels for awhile, it will be nice.

Into the Urban Wild

This reminded me of the cover photo on the book Into The Wild... just the Southern California version. This delivery truck driver from Costa Mesa gave up all his worldly possessions and drove his truck into the Sierras. He meet his fate when misread his field guide and ate a burger that was not from In N' Out. A tragic, but uplifting tale.
