What a morning....one for the books and probably one that I wont forget... sitting on the edge of the grand canyon, by myself for most of it, watching the sun rise. Surreal

Beyond burger and salad

Was only about a 45 minute wait. Photo from earlier of some random dude. Can't want for the sunrise tomorrow

South rim I just did a time lapse sunset video on my phone... curious to see how that turned out. Have plenty of time...1 hr 20 min wait time for the Bright Angel restaurant

Current locale

Trail called flat iron which has to be the steepest trail in bounds. Really fun

This was really fun. It's not marked on the map but a lot of people were skiing it

9am. Just stopped at the grille for lunch. Party atmosphere out here. DJ and all.

My daughter on upper ridge and ski patrol shack

Commence day 2... Blue bird yet again 35 degrees, sunny!! Bit cooler than yesterday.

I have a ton of them...I will bring one for you next time I'm at Blue.

Great ski day! Snowbowl was more than I ever expected. Great snow, terrain and weather. I'd be overjoyed to call it my home mountain if I were lucky enough at some point in the future. The lifts are great too. Grand canyon express and the Arizona gondola (just installed this year) boot you up quick. Only negatives are the parking sucks. Also snowbowl road is a 7 mile trek to the base kinda sucks too. The amount of traffic going in and coming out this evening was crazy. It has to be a nightmare when it snows. Also the lodges need help bad. They're pretty dated. The food at the grill was great though. Few more pics...lower bowl just below the hike to terrain up top and a steep little gully that I found.

Yes it's her first time skiing out west. Town is about 20 minutes away. Taking one last ride up the grand canyon express for today then figuring out where to eat

Ran back into town to get my daughter who didn't want to get up this morning. Chili dog for lunch and Back out to close up shop. It's much busier now. I think all of Phoenix descended on snowbowl

Yes. Trail called blackjack. This place is legit AF. I absolutely love it here. Love it. Packed pow. Blue bird. Sun trees steeps. It's all here

Yooooo this place is fuckin awesome!!!!!! More to come

Traffic on the way to the mountain is silly.

Arrived in Flagstaff last night at 12:30 local time...long ass day. Watched the first four episodes of Cobra Kai then dozed off and tried to sleep a little. I think I dozed off for a bit but sleeping on a plane is virtually impossible for me. When I left PHX airport it was 58 degrees. Smooth drive up 17 to Flagstaff. Stopped at the circle K in Anthem for provisions. Around 6k feet, just past Sedona, ground became snow covered. Flagstaff, of course, is snowy. The place where were at has a very ski lodge look and feel, ski themed essentially...nice fire place and all that jazz. All excellent for stoke. Flagstaff is a college town and a ski town all in one. Anyway today is looking sunny and blue bird with highs in the 30s up high and 40s down below. 46 of 48 trails are open but the hike to stuff in the bowl is not which is kind of a bummer. Anyway stay tuned for more. I heard we got a few inches at home so enjoy! Looking forward to reading reports at Blue.

Yes we landed. Thanks for watching the flight...I feel special. Xoxoxo.

I can't tell if you're being facetious or not

Yes...it was valley dogs.

Eaf knows how to write a TR for sure

I'll guarantee you that loafer Dad isn't watching season 4 of Cobra Kai in a few...sadly. meanwhile my CK stoke is through the roof. Edit...I'm so bored I'm actually spamming my own thread. Great.

I think they removed the ridiculous hot dog place from last year and brought back the w. Haus for this winter... thankfully
