Powder Mountian 12M w/Chasta

I forgot my board, dumbass.
Had to go home to get it. Shit
When I got back to PM
Sal was stuck,
I took him back to his truck for his kites,
then he forgets his boots. Back to his truck, again.
Finally got to kite.
strong and gusty.
The Ozone crew was there.
Never thought I'd be kiting w/ Chasta.
He's so good/smooth.
Inspired me,
I got the biggest/smoothest jump ever.
I also had some sloppy crashes.

Powder Mountian 12M

Another great day.
More southerly wind,
opened up more uncut areas.
I found an area on the backside,
cut it up some,
then went back to get Doug.
He had left. I stopped Chris,
he followed me over, then,
he kept going, through the trees,
to the ridgeline and valley to the south.
I didn't dare go through the trees, with Jon's kite.
The walk back from the radar towers, wasn't as hard today.
Corky is bringing his snowmobile tomorrow (Sun)
to take us to more untracked areas.

Powder Mountian 12M

Rode/walked to the radar towers,
to much west to "shoot the gap".
Expecially with Jon's demo Turbo.
Rode plenty powered, till I couldn't ride anymore.
Took a long rest at the Igloo Augie/others, made.
Doug tried to shoot the gap,
but fell on a jump and hurt his shoulder,
and cut a line with his board.
I didn't know what had happened,
I was ready to head back to the Van,
Chris arrived and said Doug was laying in the back of my van.
I thought he was sick (he had stomach flu last night)
Thinking he would come over when he felt better.
He never came over, I thought he had called for a ride home.
After 3 hours of killer kiting, plus my down time,
I headed back, walking from the radar towers.
When I finally got to my van, Doug had been wating 5 hours for me.
Bummer........
Augie, Mark, Nate, Chris and a few others and myself, left no freshies behind.

Strawberry River 12M

Fun day at Sberry River.
Some 'biller tracks to bump over,
some freshies to be found.
Jumping with the Turbo is for me..
Almost 3 hours of riding with Jon.
We found Chasta and Rob at the gravel pit,
looked like a terrian park,
then he ground his board across the road,
jumped 2 fences and tried to get to the hill,
under power lines.
the wind died and he was walking, uphill when we left.

20 Pine View 13M

The East wind was to gusty
and switchy by the dam.
I went to Cemetary Point
and rode a south for a while.
The snow was so cold,
that the wax I had on my board,
felt like glue.

Pine View 16.5M

I was headed to PM
Kiter (can't remember name) was at PV.
So I rigged there.
I thought I was rigging my 13m,
it was my 11M
I was concerned it would be to light for the 13,
and the 11 was definatly not enough.
So. bitching all the way back to the van,,
I rigged my 16.5,
only in time to get a few rides.
Augie tried a 18 Perer Lynn (no Luck)
tomorrow will be better...

Skyline 11M

20 to 40 mph
Mostly hard pack snow.
The hill was crappy snow, and wind.
The best was in the gully
just off the flats.

Light East Winds at sunrise.
Hard pack surface.
Temp was 0'

Powder Mountian 13M

North 25 in the parking lot.
Spencer gave rides to the Radar Tower
Small area to ride on a north
4 kiters chewed up the area fast.

Park City Fields 16.5M

Jake went with,
we went to Strawberry,
it was to light.
We stopped at Kamas exit.
I tried the Waroo 12 & 16m
Not as good of kite as TD.
My 16.5 had more power.

Powder Mountian 11M

The winds looked strong
when we got there.
not sunny,,not cloudy.
Doug rigged 9m
My 11m was just right.
we shot the gap,
and kited by the radar tower.
soft, but not powdery snow.
Very good day....

Lower Skyline 16.5M

It was a whiteout at the top.
Jake. Ozoners and WOW from CA
all headed down by Electric Lake
We kited the hill
It was downhill jumping on my bad side.
But I just kept working on it till the wind died.
It would have been better if we were on top...
