Early Season Powder Turns

Thanksgiving Weekend in the Wasatch is usually a good time to tour, despite the 30" snowpack and warm, dry weather. We headed into Silver Fork and were pleasantly surprised by some high quality turns.

Beacon Check...All Good

Snowpit...No Slab = safe...for now

Rip the skins and...

Rip the Pow

See you at the next Island of Safety!

One good run deserves another...Back up through
the Aspen Forest we go.

This shot looks fresh, and the snow is soft...hmmm


What better way to enjoy the Autumn sun?


Than by working off some Turkey and shredding the meadows!

    Hello everyone, I am Daniel Gibbie, i saw a testimony online about how one Terry Gonzales got His Loan from this legit loan lender. I"m currently living in USA. i was stuck in a financial situation and i needed to refinance and pay my bills. I tried seeking loans from various loan firms both private and corporate but never was successful, and most banks declined my credit ,do not fall prey to some of those hoodlums that call them self money lender they are all scam, all they want is your money and you well not hear from them again they have done it to me twice before I decided to try this man being that He is a man of GOD. I contacted Dr. Dave Logan. The most interesting part of it is that my loan was transfer to me within 48 hours so I will advice you to contact Dr. Dave Logan if you are interested in getting a loan contact Him via email: daveloganloanfirm@gmail.com and Call/Text: +1(501)800-0690

Beat the Heat: A Guide's Secrets to Climbing in the Wasatch at the Height of Summer

Beat the Heat Where to climb this summer in order to stay cool  by UMA guide Alex Lemieux   Rock climbing in the Wasatch on a hot summer day can be a treacherous endeavor if you don’t choose your venue wisely. Between rattlesnake encounters, greasing-off a polished handhold while sweat is running into your eyes or simply trying to stay hydrated, climbing in the heat is just no fun. When the temperatures rise, otherwise do-able routes can suddenly feel like an impossible task. Put the odds in your favor, and consider these tips in order to stay cool throughout the summer. While you may already be familiar with some of these suggested Wasatch summer climbing areas, hopefully this will help you expand your hot weather climbing “repertoire”… Happy climbing!

Superior Chute Skiing

Despite the meager snowpack this past season, there was still some exciting skiing and climbing to be done on Mt. Superior, one of America's 50 Classic Ski Lines. On Jan. 5, we climbed and skied Suicide Chute, then continued up the knife-eged South Ridge with skis on the back. We finished by dropping the "W" or "Pinball" Chute, another East-Facing couloir. It required 2 small "mandatory airs" and a bit of creative route-finding. But, all in all, a fine day on the mountainside. Crampons recommended for the lowest portion of Suicide Chute, aka, Country Lane. Paul gets it done in the well-travelled, but smooth-skiing Suicide Chute. The Knife-edge section of the South Ridge. Note the quality snow in Couloirs below. This old goat had no harem, but seemed to be living out his years alone and happy. The final slab crux before topping out on the "Sharks Fin" where the Quartzite ends, and Slate/Shale friable rock leads to...

Gear Talk: Grivel 'Duetto' Helmet

To helmet or not to helmet? We asked Alan Rousseau what his favorite piece of gear was at the moment and this is what we found out...                When I was a kid I never skied without a helmet.  Largely I feared my mother’s wrath if she found out I didn’t have my lid on that day.  As I fully transitioned from resort skiing to ski touring, somewhere along the way my helmet stopped making it into my pack.  I went from skiing with a helmet every day to only bringing one along on the rowdiest of ski objectives.                  A big reason for this was carrying the weight of a traditional ski helmet on the uphill was unpleasant, and it’s one more step to do on the change over from skinning up to downhill skiing.  Fortunately, last year a very lightweight climbing helmet was released that is rated to handle both a climbing and a ski fall. ...
