summary:
Hey!! it snowed again.. NW Pooh at its finest!

headed on out for another session out at Gold Creek. I seriously love this place, there really is so much fun to be had around every corner, snowboard runs for days. How much work do you want to put in? and how foggy is this zone compared to that zone? always factors when trying to get some snowboard runs in, and shit, even getting some killer slednecking.. another killer bonus? its 1hr from home!!

so here we go, Aly out for his 1st real deal back country sledding for snowboard runs adventure. we doubled out on my sled thru the fog, this zone, that zone, next zone. fog.. shoot, lets head out to the ol faithful bowl where the fog doesn't seem to sit like the rest of the area.. blammo! arrival, no fog!!!  " hey Aly, jump off here, go fall line down to the big open flat spot down there, i'll meetcha down there"  Aly- "ok mate rubbish rubbish, i'll slide this wood stick down rubbish rubbish there" uhhh ok.. do it!!

off we go, rally while the light is good and get some runs in, then the ultra camera guy inside Aly comes out. and we start trying to get some cool shots.. out of over a 100 shots he took, here are a couple of the gems.. Aly says he's out of practice  and well i believe him but shit, i'm still stoked to see his pics cuz he always puts his knowledge and time in to every snap.. thanks Aly!! i had a killer day and there is going to be a lot more days to un-rustify your snaps..

so, some pics,  i took a few and Aly took a thousand.. here is our mix.
