A Week in the Hole

The Martini Chutes
Wow, where has the winter gone?!  The season has almost come and gone without me even noticing.  That's not quite true.  Actually, this winter has been a long, hard fight here in Alaska.  We have had an unusually dry few months and way too many big wind events this year.  Most of us here can only hope we see as much high pressure this summer as we have this winter!  Amongst all this, I managed to get a quick trip in to visit my ol' buddy Matt down in Jackson Hole.  As always, it was a great time!  My flight was a bit hectic, but I eventually made it.  The skiing there this season has been amazing and it was well worth the wait to enjoy some of that light, Wyoming snow.  I put together a couple little edits using my recently purchased helmet cam.  Check'em out and let me know what ya think.

Enjoy!

Here's one I made with footage from my flight.  It's just for fun and practice with the new software.
