A Virgin No More.

After nearly 15 seasons,
Breckenridge's Lake Chutes are one of
the last places in Summit County that
I had not skiied, with steeps in
excess of 50 degrees, stradled well
over 12,000 ft. atop Imperial Peak,
it just took me a little while to finally
get up there. Al-X had been here before
and led the way over the cornice
and down through boot deep powder,
very nice indeed.


A mini lungbuster hike from the lifttop
brought us to the top of the world
and the beginning of the chutes.
In went Al-X. From the belly of the beast.

A doctored image...Al-X in sepia. Hey, it's me.
Surveying Contest Bowl.
Then attacking it.


We had quite a few sweet powder
turns beginning in and around the
Horseshoe Bowl and T-bar as well.
Best day at Breck yet.
