High Pressure has left Utah and Powder has returned! The last few days have been all time as over 30″ of snow have hit Altabird in the last few days. My 12th HelmetCast should be done with footage after tomorrow morning and hopefully I’ll have it online by Thursday.

Welcome back Ullr! Please stay forever…

I write this post as a plea to the great and powerful snowgods…Please end this high pressure and bring some fresh powder!

I am 73% done with the latest video. Just cutting out the rest of the footage. Here is a frame grab from some double staged air time.

Ullr!?! This hot weather caused me to stay inside the Marriott Library all day…this travesty should not repeat itself!

March has apparently arrived at Snowbird as temperatures reach 40 degrees and spring skiing gear comes out. Another helmet cast is on the way early next week (hopefully) complete with footage of the stomp I put down on the high speed double this Tuesday.

How about some snow to bring in the spring semester Ullr?
