What hill? Soft boots?

I had only maybe 20 days on a board when I went out west for a road trip with some pro boarders. Started at Nakiska, then Banff. Lake Louise. Marmot, Fernie, Cranbrook, etc. And the highlight was a couple of days heliskiing with Weigle. I thought it would be a learning experience but I could just not keep up so switched to skis. Except when in knee or waist high pow. But generally everyone had to wait for me to flub my way down.

No need for any fear in deep powder as long as you avoid the rocks! It is a whole new beautiful world.
