Seattle SX 2010

Took the train up to Seattle for the weekend to catch The Monster Energy AMA Supercross. Had to miss it last year to have that pesky wedding of ours but it was awesome to see Kevin Windham get a win and witness the riders negotiate the very gnarly and technical track! Here are some pics from the pits...

Go Seahawks!

Pow Pow Powder Snow

Finally caught up to the storm thats been dumping a bunch of snow all over the NW. Usually these only last through the week leaving us weekend warriors with the left overs but this weather surge lasted almost an entire week. It was great to have it snow all day and not get wet from it. and up on the steeps of Ski Bowl the snow was awesome. About knee deep and just fluffy enough to get some white room action. Finally got my pow fix...






I only had my cell phone on me so the picture taking was limited but this shot above is from the East Wall of Ski Bowl's upper bowl. its about a 5 minute traverse with a couple sections of 1 foot skate action and plenty of tows from my wife's ski poles. Just left of the center of the shot is the top of the Upper Bowl chair lift. Thats where we started from.
