Tomorrow is the first day of Winter but it sure does feel like it’s been around a while. What a Fall to remember here in the Wasatch!

Ever since I moved to Salt Lake in 1993, I’ve stared 1000’s of times up at Mount Olympus in awe of its absolute grandeur.

When the chuting gallery came out in 1998, I got an autographed copy, one of the first from @straightchuter and when I came across page 69, I thought, Medusa Face, wow, now that’s something.

For the last 8-10 years, I’ve been really drawn to ride this mountain. Staring up at it month after month, year after year - just waiting, wanting and hoping…

With the season shaping up to be historic, the snowpack being just about perfect for a line like this - I knew I just couldn’t wait any longer! Today was going to be the day. I wasn’t willing to hold myself back, have outside circumstances delay me any further or have another season slip away.

Knowing damn well that this line is heavy and avalanche conditions not being quite perfect, I said a prayer, kissed Maverick on the head, wrote a short note just in case and loaded up.

As I drove, my decision was solid and I hoped my waiting would pay off. The decision was to do it direct, solo and hopefully free!

By now, if you watched the reel, you know the mission was a success.

I don’t often write long posts like this because I wonder if anyone really reads them but this is more of a journal entry for me to reflect back on and to inspire those who have read this far.

After today, this is a resounding message: never doubt yourself, never give up on yourself and never let anything hold you back from living your full potential. NEVER! Do everything you can to work towards your goals! Get the education, get the skills, get the knowledge and get after it.

After doing this line so much has changed for me. If I could sum it up in a few words: self-actualization and ultimate confidence.

Everything is possible, now more then ever. And that is what it’s all about.

Days like today, 82 degrees in March have me thinking of cooler days in Canada.

2 Splitboarders + 1 GoPro + 6” of Wasatch Pow = Good times.

Such a fun day in the Wasatch with @billyspeirs_hustle.

Today was great for the soul. Much needed!

Stratton.
Hearing news like this is never easy. Hearing about Stratton was especially heartbreaking because you realize a peaceful, harmonious and joyful person has left us; but there is solace knowing we got moments to bask in the light of his humanness and passionate soul energy.

You sought to be the change you wanted to see in the world, and you were!

It was my pleasure to watchyou spend every amount of time in the mountains Splitboarding, camping, biking, connecting and really becoming one with it all. Connecting with you personally, you reminded me of myself at the young age of 26 with your non-stop dedication to “surfing the earth” and playing in the mountains.

Thank you for sharing yourself with all you did and stood for. Thank you for being someone who made the World a better place by knowing you. Thank you Stratton! If there is a heaven, or place where we reunite, I’m sure you’re there with AVK, laughing, saying “what’s up bud-eh?” and at peace.

Rest easy, buddy! ❤️

Sometimes it comes down to just one run at Snowbird. Hope you got yours…❄️ It sure does go quick these days…

Now back to our irregularly scheduled backcountry entertainment.

@utahadventuresunlimited @flylowgear @zirkeloptics @karakorambc @goprosnow

Feels good to see some new snow in the hills again!

Seems like old man winter has been playing in British Columbia and Japan most of the season.

Change of the times with our climate or just an off year? Will Utah’s Wasatch retain the slogan of “greatest snow on earth”?

What are your thoughts?
