Alta, UT, Report: Funky Snow Little Chute Fun

Report from April 29, 2024 Yesterday I went for a jaunt at Alta, UT. I went for Little Chute which I hadn’t skied this year.

Report from April 20, 2024 (If you are interested in skiing Alaska in 2025 with Miles please email us at contact@snowbrains.com, thanks 🙂 The terrain here is hard to understand. It’s so big.

Valdez, AK, Report: What Is “Alaskan Velvet?” Hint: It’s This… And It’s Great…

Report from April 16, 2024 On Tuesday, we got out to have a look in a northern zone I’d never been to with Pulseline Adventure. 3 Pigs. It was windy out there. More than expected. We skied 2 runs in good, wind-buffed powder in some high-quality ski terrain. I wanted more, but the wind sent us back to our staging […]

Report from April 9, 2024 Monday was the 2nd day of my 2024 Alaska heli-ski season. The day started cloudy and slowly started clearing. By 1:30pm, we were in the air.
