Late May change of weather. Winter returns for at least 12 hours. Six to eight at summit; three to four at village.

Having wussed out on Timberline last weekend, and with the local hill mostly grass now, I guess my season is about done . There will be a couple days at Logan Pass in Glacier Park when they open...
Good pictures. I knew I'd be kicking myself if the sky cleared. Web cams look really good today too. I could have tried to make the drive on Saturday, and now in retrospect, I should have. It...
It sure sounds like it's shaping up to be cloudy and wet, maybe even a little fresh snow slowing things down. What's the gut feeling from people out there? It's hard to motivate for a 10 hour drive...
One more, just because I bumped into some subjects to video. A week of warm, sunny weather decimated that lower mountain snow coverage. The end of the video shows how you can still have fun...
I was going to be done with shooting hiking the Big videos, but ran into a couple other people on Thrusday (the 9th). So one more...
What a difference a week of sunny warm weather makes. The...
We finally had a warm, sunny, spring day of fun corn snow. Still 100 inches at the summit. Day 140 of the johnasmo '12/'13 snow season. The song was recorded by a pre-teen guitar phenom from...
A couple of post-season skinning videos. Not hardboot carving. Softboot carving? Well, no, not even that. But they are shot at Whitefish Mountain Resort, so not totally off topic.
The first...
Finally getting post season runs worth remembering. Still wintery and windy up top, and filled in with enough new snow to feel like powder runs again. Village temp was 26 degrees Fahrenheit this...
Precipitation.
Valley grows; summit recedes.
Splitboard chattering.
BC got hit late last week too. Both Revelstoke and Fernie had close to 30 inches fresh for their closing weekends. I hit Revy on Saturday and Fernie on Sunday for a lucky shot of mid-winter powder...
So far there's been no reason to video the post season. After a closing week of sunny spring corn, the temps dropped back down. I had a couple great powder days last weekend in BC at Revelstoke and...
It seems a shame to let these languish buried on the Montana Ride board, so I'm starting a video thread for carving videos shot at Whitefish Mountain Resort.
First is some footage from the 2013...
Spring fun. Way to go WASMAN!
I just saw two people try Fernie's pond skim on snow blades. They didn't do well.
Dave and I tried the Whitefish pond skim on alpine boards in 2011.
Here's me...
The season's not over until the snow melts.
Sunny and cold right now, with more snow coming this week.
Should be good for a couple of weeks before the village melts off.

Hello from North Montucky. Sorry I missed the COW Session. I really should check the community forum more often. I didn't even spot this thread until yesterday, the 7th. I couldn't have made it...
Another bluebird spring day. Skwal Bunny was back.

Missed you again, Allee! Are you avoiding me? That's two trips you've made here and we haven't even shared a chair lift, let alone a...
I didn't shot anything Friday because there was no time to prep it for the Banquet and I just wanted to ride without stopping.
Trent shot some, but none of First Tracks down copper. His are...
Almost 4 weeks late, but here's a little look back at the WTF 2013 week. I didn't shoot much video, but we got a great set of action shots from the on-hill photographers, so the second half is a...
No, really, it's not all just Dave TV. I got clips of a whole lot of people.
Day 1 at Buttermilk.
Snowed cats and dogs in the morning. Liam wins board at Bumps.

Scrub speed? That would be cheating. The only slide outs were on the last pass down the Chute (which shown in video), but that was after 3:00 PM when it was getting pretty loose. I wasn't EC'ing...
Today is back to snow and fog. But you can still play on steeps, but treed steeps like this clip from last Sunday. There are groomer days, and then the rest are "Connie's" days...
<iframe...
Yes, Tuesday was AWESOME carving. The grooming crew did an excellent job and they even did some of my favorite steep runs that are only occasionally groomed. The chair 5 chute, heep steep, powder...
There were some queries at the banquet as to whether or not the full set of Carve Factor clips would be available.
Well, here they are:
SES 2013 Carve Factor (Sean Video)
SES 2013 Carve Factor...
Got some videos edited for the banquet.
No time for soundtracks. Just turn your volume down.
Day 1 at Buttermilk
Day 2 at Snowmass
Day 3 at Ajax/Buttermilk (First Tracks, Ruthies, Carve...
