Drawing Lines

Looking down on the creeping haze of death. NO!
Looking up the ridge to Saddle Rock before the sun sets
Russ rides snowboard

The next day it snowed 6 inched at my house. Because of the orientation and wind patterns this ridge line received about 18" of fresh snow. If you follow this ridge line down you get about 1000 ft of vertical. It's a great little adventure, 40 minutes up 2 minutes down. A perfectly executed powder turn on a snowboard with fresh snow is hard to beat. Real hard to beat. It all has to come together though. Almost forgot, I saw 4 bald eagles, about 25 deer, and one little cottontail rabbit in the last few days up there.
