Report from December 7, 2023

Today was the very last day of the “300” project.

Sky day #305.

305 days means skiing 6 days per week for a year straight.

I barely made it…

I wore my Argentine “faja’ today to pay tribute to my mom because it’s a guacho piece of attire and my mom was a huge cowgirl.

This whole project is inspired by and dedicated to my mother who passed away from her 4th cancer this year in January.

Today was a stormy powder day at Alta, UT with Legendary World Cup US Ski Racer Steven Nyman (who will be on our podcast next week).

There was no one at Alta and it was snowing cats and dogs.

We skied lap after lap of smooth, creamy powder snow on the backside (Greeley, Gunsight) and even got in a dreamy High Rustler to close it out.

It snowed hard while we were there today and the forecast is for a large dump tonight.

Utah is where the snow is with Alta reporting 122″ of snowfall this season as of this writing.

It feels surreal to have skied 305 days in a year and to have finished the project on a pow day with Steven.

I kinda can’t believe it’s over…

I’ve had my head down for so long focusing on one day at a time.

I feel like I can finally look up and see what’s coming.

And what’s coming is a big powder day in Utah tomorrow…

Much more soon on the “300” project.

Thanks, Utah!
