A few photos from the WCS.

Day 2 at Highlands. Great snow, nice hard groom, relatively few people. 45+ carvers on the hill, so nice to see so many people riding and having fun.

Day 4, Snowmass. Nice conditions at the bottom and at the very top, dense fog in between. Big Burn lift closed. Had great runs off Sheer Bliss, then a bunch more on Sam's Knob. Took the poma to the Cirque.

Day 5? Losing count. Pureboarding crew went to Highlands today, and Lisa & I had a morning of telemarking with our boy, then carving at Buttermilk in the afternoon. Runs were unusually busy (NOT). I got another full 360 carve at the toilet bowl, that's a special spot.

Nice shots, Ken! Lisa and I really liked your video -- she cried (at herself on Sterner) and she laughed (Ray's awesome entrance to Ruthie's). I say the knee cam has a good future! The shots from the lift were very cool, I liked the different perspective a lot.
