Fall: From Low to High
By: Greg
October 18, 2010
The return of schuss definitely brought out KC’s smile!
Christian seyz: it’s time to riiiiiiiide.
I’d go for this any day of the week. So would KC.
Our friend Chris Nelson from High Anxiety Films (and creator of Stomping Grounds) was with us and he was happy to get back “into it” for another season.
Yep. We’re back to winter!

wrote on October 18th, 2010 at 10:24 pmGreat shots as always, Greg. I wish I had had more of a chance to get out this weekend, but after my excursion to the bush (which had to be sadly cut short), I had a blast, and am now proudly able to say that I’ve skied in October.
I can’t wait for the next snowfall!

wrote on October 18th, 2010 at 11:18 pmgreat TR Greg and photos are just wild. I was tripping on the contrast of the foliage and the wintry lookout I found myself in on Saturday, too, sunny leaf-covered hills in the valley, howling winds and snow underfoot. Bring it.

Greg
wrote on October 19th, 2010 at 10:40 amHA! yep… it was definitely faked. Never been so bummed on day 1 in my life… oh well. Live and learn. In the end it all worked out. Loved your video/slideshow TR on T4T. I would have loved to make it over there to join you, but alas… it worked out OK.
We will get together soon though. I have a feeling :D

There must have been krummholz under those rocks, just waiting to make lunch out of a snowboarder.
Evan
wrote on October 19th, 2010 at 10:50 amGreat work! Still kicking myself for going back to bed instead of going skiing. I really need to re-think my priorities, and get some bindings for my rock skis. Next time I’ll be there.

wrote on October 19th, 2010 at 6:16 pmWell played up high. Given the rain at the base Saturday morning, I never would have thought the summit would have done so well! Cheers to Lionel for the good forecast!
Greg
wrote on October 20th, 2010 at 8:48 amtell me about it… it was a great great surprise to see that once the snow lifted. incidentally we got the beta when I was taking the scenic snow/foliage shots on Page 3 of the TR. At full crop we were like… woah… that’s rideable!!
