Surfing Lake Powell..

yes, it's good fun to work the endless wave in 85 degree water behind the boat. Our crew was a little heavy on teenagers, though, and they managed to take over the boat the first couple of nights. Everyone ended up having a good time, and we went to Rainbow Bridge to check out the arch. Here's a couple more photos, until I get the rest up on Flicker and add a link here...

Hole in My Life

Elvis Costello and The Police played to 12,000 of us dedicated fans at the gorge last weekend. Here's video from earlier in the tour of "Hole in my Life", one of the best songs of the night! Speaking of a "Hole in my Life, the new boat arrives tomorrow - Should be a fun "hole" to throw money and time at. Here's to wake-surfing in the Central Oregon Sunshine!! While at the Gorge, we got an after-concert drop-off at the Vantage Climbing Area just outside the concert Venue: some chill climbing in "Kook Canyon" ensued the next morning...

A Surfer Dad's Proudest Moment

Here's a video of my son, gettting pushed into his first wave at my old "home break" of Scotsman's Cove, in So. Cal. There was an incredible run of surf last week, and although I only got a few waves during my recent trip, this day will live in my memory forever... Surfer Magazine has more detail on the recent string of great So. Cal South Swell here: more great photos on the surf can be found here...

REAL ski resorts re-open in June...

Here's to Willamette Pass, which re-opened last weekend, for some late-season turns. We hit it up Saturday from 9-2:30, and it was pretty fun! Imagine Mt. Bachelor making a decision like this.....

45 degrees (the angle, not the temp) on N. Sister!

Went up on N. Sister - E. Face / NE Ridge with Seth today. Lots of good turns from about 8900' on down to the snow line, then a long hike out. Good stuff!
