Description
Photographed February 11, 2025 at Powder Mountain in Utah’s Wasatch Mountains.
I woke up and looked outside. It was –3°F, light snow was falling and the wind was calm. I grabbed my gear, drove to Powder Mountain, rode the new Lightning Ridge lift, and hiked up and over the top of James Peak with skis on my back and a heavy camera rig on my arm. I traversed the ridge and set up in Shug’r Bowl, about 4 turns from the top. The northerly flow, known locally as the “Cache Valley Effect” delivered light snowflakes with incredible detail. Each crystal had a similar inner shape. I stayed there taking photos all day until the ski patrol started sweep. I skied down to Paradise with frozen toes and sat with boots off in the Timberline Lodge until I warmed up.
