Over-The-Head-Face-Shots @ Alta Yesterday | Video & Photos I can confirm that is video is actually from yesterday, October 30th, 2013.

โ This Happened Yesterday… | Sugar Bowl, CA Conditions Report: The previous day was good skiing, and it called for a return trip to Sugar Bowl for some more preseason turns at Sugar Bowl.

Colorado Conditions Report: Fun, Variable Snow on Oct. 26th | Video & Photos Saturday October 26th: Usually a ski day this time of year would be epic just due to it being so early in the season.
