I headed out into the backcountry with my good buddy and fellow guide, Jules Hanna.

Jules knows the Tahoe backcountry 1,000% better than me.

He told me where to go and I went.

Sierra Crest.

He was right.

Dry, recrystallized, sugary, dreamy powder.

You had to get high to get it.

You had to walk on dirt, bushes, rocks to get down from it.

It was worth it.
