We're in full-on couloir season here in Colorado. Chris, Andrew, Tyler, and Joe all decided to brave terrible weather and semi-frozen snow on the Shit for Brains couloir last Saturday.

A Little Line

They were vaguely similar to my first turns last year, seeing how the October snow quality was … Continue reading First Turns of the Season
