Sunrise on the drive up. It's four hours from Albuquerque to Wolf Creek pass. Almost always see the sun rise on the drive up. Ahhhh.

Daybreak. The view at my hotel in Pagosa Springs. Always feels odd to head out for a day of snowplay in the pouring rain. Springtime.

Check out the height of the drift. I'm 6 foot, top of the board is 8 foot. This drift was on a saddle above the pass.

Top of the mountain. This is after 2hrs or so of climbing. Wind well over 40mph so I'm hunkered down behind a tree.

My tracks again. Pictures do not convey the steepness. Easily a double diamond.
