As this year's season comes to a close, what was the best day/moment you had this year?

For me, I was able to head up to Alpental for some blower pow on a Friday, a moment I hope to have many times in the coming years.

Pics Encouraged!

 
Made it to Whistler for a couple days, and on the first day it snowed 30cm. Best day I have ever had!
 
Just got back from a collarbone break and in ny first four days back, three were powder days. The other one was pretty much spring skiing
 
got a first tracks lap down blackcomb glacier after 20cm had fallen. Lets just say I had a little snow in my pants too.
 
was one of the first people to hit lake chutes at breck after the biggest storm in years. like 3 feet of untouched fresh and then some really fun trees at the bottom that you can only get if you hit the chutes. so deep and soft
 
yesterday at crystal. forecast said 45 degrees and raining. in reality, 18+ inches of fresh with 2 inches coming down every hour. nobody was there because they read the forecast
 
Biggest pow day of my life shared with 2 of my best friends, or the afternoon when i went by myself and finally learned handrails
 
either when i went to whistler and it snowed like 200cm in 5 days or when i went to revy and sent north bowl all day on a blower pow day. cant decide
 
Best day of 2013-14 for me was when we spend a ski vacation at Alta Utah, so pretty awesome place. That was the best opening year for me, a memorable moment and bonding with my college friends. Lots of throwback memories,feels so good! ^-^
 
Had a day up on Blackcomb park that was just really fun all around, Whistler just never disappointments. Also did a Red Bull comp at my local hill which turned out to be a really fun session between a bunch of riders all over the course!
 
First tour of the season, first time on new sally rocker 2s, first time on skis over 92mm in the waist, first time on rockered skis, 40cm pow, in Tromsø-Northern Norway. Never been so stoked before!
 
A couple weeks ago at Sugarbush, it was dumping all day and every run there were fresh tracks in the woods. One of those "free refills" days for sure.
 
I had some really good ones, any of you who have seen the Salomon free ski edit filmed in Rusutsu, I was skiing there some of those days. Had some bangers in Niseko as well.

This is probably my favourite shot of the season

A heavy snow but a pow day nonetheless at Bellearye and a pow day at mountain creek where we shredded in the woods which happens rarely to never in New Jersey! It's about to be a high of 52 when I shred Hunter on Wednesday so plenty of gnarliness left.
 
My season ended March 23rd. Best day was Thunder Ridge to Twin Lakes in the Kootenay Pass in January. 3 lines stood out, back to back: 4 step pillow line, a 15 foot drop and 20 foot drop.

Best 3 day ever was my trip to Revelstoke in end of Febuary, 85cm in 3 days. I dropped my biggest cliff drop there.
 
Yhew! God damn I love skiing, it's so hard to pinpoint the best day of the 2013-14 season to one day so I'll list a few.

Dumont Cup 3/29/14-Bluebird park day, watching the pros throw down while shredding the regular park in some soft spring mashed potatoes.

Then I had a day at Sugarloaf on MLK day that was absolutely banger vibes. Kept taking runs to America to spark up while shredding the shit out of Haywire with some good homies

The last one that comes to mind was a pow day mid Feburary at Sunday River. T'was on a Thursday, so there was absolutely no one there and we had gotten 18inches of soft snow the night before. Was getting freshies all day long with some of the good homies.

Threads like this reaffirm how much I love skiing
 
Yesterday at Whiteface was surreal. A good 8 inches of fresh had fallen overnight and I was spending the night in Lake Placid the night before. When I got to the mountain in the morning, I took a good run or two from the top of Little Whiteface from the Gondola then went elsewhere for the rest of the day and it was unreal to me to see a powder day at the end of March in the northern Adirondacks. The only problem was that the further down the mountain you got toward the base lodge, the wetter the powder was.
 
Snoqualmie closed everything exept central and silver fir on the deepest day of the year. right when we got there the pass closed. We had almost the entire mountain to ourselves and got to stay till close.
 
strangely enough, closing day was my favorite, the landings were soft so i was trying a whole bunch of new tricks, i also learned to hand- drag over the knuckle. its such a fun trick so i just had a blast throwing hand drags over barrels and knuckles. just a great day
