Ski tracks above the Granite Glacier.

I made it back to Jackson Hole with my bros today, safe and sound after a great trip to British Columbia and the Selkirks. We were late getting into the hut due to weather and missed one day of skiing (sort of), but we still had four sunny days while we were there, which allowed for great ski touring to the summits of Mount Damon, Sentinel, Houdini Needles, Colossal, Enterprise and Sir William, as well as some amazing and long runs down the many glaciers in the area. We did leave a few lines untracked for the next time we are able to visit Fairy Meadows and the Adamant group…too hard not to!

I’m right back into the grove here with work and a few projects I need to focus on for the next couple weeks, but will for sure share some photos and stories from the adventure. Thanks to Ryan and Jen Zalta for including me on their trip…and thanks to all the new and old friends who joined us for a great week. Can wait to return!!!

Sweet man. We were actually out at Meadow the same week (our heli got delayed earlier that morning as well). Small world, must have crossed paths at the staging area at some point.
Anyways.. Was at Fairy Meadows last year and we didn’t get anywhere close to that sorta terrain (way too sketchy at the time). Nice work carving up the glacier!
yo david…hope you had fun too! maybe we sat next to each other near the stove or something waiting fairy meadows…at least in the alpine…though i was still a bit tentative to jump on the really consequential lines.
Welcome home! Good timing! The last week has been warm and sunny. Really depressing.
Looks awesome, did you get any helmet cam footy of those glacier descents?
It was nice to meet you in Dillon Steve that Patagonia Outlet always drags me off that long stretch of I-15. I see you Arc’teryx loyalty wouldn’t let you browse around? JK. Glad you guys made it back safe can’t wait to hear about it and see some more pictures.
sorry jay…unfortunately that was too much work for me for this trip. stills only…but got some good ones!!!!
nice to meet you too derek. thanks for saying hi.
yeah…very happy with my arc’teryx gear. not to mention that i’ve worked in a similar shop for over 10 years now. kinda felt like i was back at work…which i wasn’t quite ready for yet. i think my bros scored some good deals though.
