Snowboarding P.O.V

Although I prefer to ski, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do! For me that was mounting up my brothers snowboard and taking it up for my first pow day of the year. During a 2 day period, Utah was pummeled by a snow storm from the south-west. 2-6 feet was deposited in an instant. Since I didn't have any skis at the time, I eagerly grabbed the 164 Jones Experience mid-wide and learned how to surf the pow. It was all time, and probably ranks up there as some of the best pow days of my life!

I've also been testing out the GoPro HD. Its a fine little camera that allows me to slam it against a tree, drop it off the lift, or lose it all together. I can't do any of that with my canon!

Row Mr. Fisherman

As I sit here and type this blog post, the temperature outside is a bone chilling -5. A stark contrast to the glorious summer weather in the video I am about to post. Ahhhhh, floating down a cool river on a hot summer day. Sounds nice eh? Enough of the summer stoke though, this is Utah and it's POWDER time! Bring it!

Here we go! Here we GO!

The first in a series of potent storms is moving eastward, slated to impact utah for the next few days. Although most of the energy will be south of the wasatch, the good news is that an active storm track in now present. Hopefully this is the start of something good. And when I say good I mean 20 feet of snow.

here is what the National Weather Service has to say:

"THE LEADING EDGE OF THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM WILL ENTER THE REGION LATE TONIGHT...AND LAST INTO TUESDAY AFTERNOON. THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SNOW EXISTS...ESPECIALLY OVER CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN
UTAH WHERE UP TO 4 FEET OF SNOWFALL IN THE HIGHER TERRAIN IS POSSIBLE"

when will it begin?

Sitting here looking at the extended forecast. Not really looking too promising for the conditions displayed in the photograph below. Im a very patient individual, so I will continue to wait...



(there is a snowmobile in there)

fall fishing continues...

The extended period of beautiful fall weather has led to some fine outings on the river. Winter is tightening its grip on the landscape. Each day of fishing is appreciated as it could be the last. Any day now, if everything goes right, the mountains will endure the snow cycle that myself and thousands of others live for. Until then, benders and tight lines...

Arts and Crafts

my streamer box was hurting, no black buggers!!! That meant it was arts and crafts time at the tying bench. Fly tying can be extremely hard yet satisfying. You can let the creativity flow and create just about anything. So long as I don't snag it in a tree, a good hand tied fly might last many years and bring at least one fish to the net.
