Today I awoke at 4:10am, a little early indeed, and hiked my way up to Wolverine Cirque for first light coming into the zone. I was up there with some incredibly talented snowboarders like Ash Christiansen, Tyler Anderson, Aaron Ward and pro skier Elyse Saugstad. Everyone chose great lines and it was very fun to watch. I was the first one to drop, so I got to watch everyone.
A few photos from the morning:

I am about to drop into my line. This particular line today was special to me. This was the exact spot Billy Poole dropped into last season when he passed away skiing down from this same spot. This one was for you Billy. RIP.
So glad to have run into you up there JC. I had no idea that you had just skied Billy’s line. Much love, and I’ll be seein’ ya soon!
