Today I came to birch, found flatlight, that the park hadn't been changed in a week, and that today wasn't a good day to ski it, but skied it anyway. BUT THEN, I found this really fun pretty untracked powder w/ stumps/trees sticking out you could ollie off. Even though it was small and made me want to go to Alyeska so goddamn much, I had sooo much fun on it; in fact the most fun of the season so far on that run and a couple similar runs I found, and after that run I didn't go through the park a single time. Moral of the story: while we may appear to be parkrats; once an Alaskan skier always an Alaskan skier...
