White Powder Anyone?

It snowed!! We woke up to find that the storm we watched last night left us a foot of fresh powder to ride in!  Today we rode at Brighton.  This is my favorite mountain so far.  This mountain is what I imagined out west riding to be like.  The runs were very long but wide open.  There were also tons of tree runs.  Snowbird was definitely awesome but much more intimidating than Brighton.  Our first run was an experience.  Somehow, Tim and I got separated from Sean and Matt and before we knew it we were going down a black diamond full of trees.  Riding on fresh powder is completely different and my legs were feeling it.  It felt like you were gliding across the snow, which was an awesome feeling.  I really loved every aspect of today.  The riding was perfect.  By the end of the day my confidence level was back up.  We had a lot of fun and the conditions couldn't have been better.  After we called it a day on the slopes, we headed back to Salt Lake and hit up a few local ski shops.  Sean also took us to a little park where we were able to get some great pictures of the city.  This place is beautiful.  Below are a few of our pictures from today.
