Bariloche Argentine Patagonia Highlight Video 2023 – The Best Snow of Our 13 Ski Seasons Here 2023 in Bariloche in Argentine Patagonia started off terribly. Rain, ice, fog, and just nasty. We arrived in July and struggled for about 3 weeks before something changed. In mid-August, it started to snow. And it just didn’t stop. It’s actually still snowing like crazy down there in mid-November – which is very unusual… We skied powder and epic […] Featured Video Miles Clark | November 27, 2023 0 Comments

SnowBrains 2022 Utah Highlight Video | Mt. Baldy Or Bust! I really didn’t ski that much in Utah in 2021/22. Most of my skiing activity there that season was very early season and very late and almost all of that was on 11,000′ Mt. Baldy at Alta Ski Area before & after they were open for the season. Mt. Baldy is so fun in lower snowpack conditions when the chute […] Featured Video Miles Clark | September 11, 2023 0 Comments

VIDEO: Best of Freeride World Tour @ Snowbird, UT Snowbird skiers and riders clearly missed having big mountain competitions at their home mountain. The snowbird spectator crowd is by far the rowdiest, most costumed, drunkest, and funnest crowd at any big mountain comp on Earth. We love that this video shows the ‘bird in all it’s glory: skiing hard, partying hard, snowballing hard, along with a deep appreciation for big mountain skiing and riding. We’re going to have to figure out how to get comps going in Utah once more. […] SnowBrains | March 10, 2014 1 Comment
