A little pow shred at Wolf Creek and Silverton Mountain brought to you by a few grown men who can't keep their phones in their pockets...

With the snow pack getting off to a slow start in CO, recent storms that have piled up over 5ft at Wolf Creek mandated getting off my butt and burning some petrol down to Wolf Creek to meet up with photographer Aaron Dodds, Van’s Social Media Manager Larry Nunez, Never Summer team rider Charlie Hoch, as well as sorts of assorted bros and dudes for some slashes, face shots, high-fives, and… some Instagramming.

Me (@bitchin_camaro) beating Dodds (@prof_daggs) on the insta draw to this ‘gram of the stormy skies opening up at Wolf Creek revealing the 19″ of white dropped overnight. Of course, between the two of us we were packing serious photographic firepower… in the front seat of our trucks. Phones only on this trip…

@prof_daggs staring out towards New Mexico probably thinking deep thoughts about the socio-economic impact of Greece’s recently planned austerity meas… or probably just T&A. Yep, definitely T&A. Insta by @bitchin_camaro.

Heli at Silverton Mountain

Then it was off to #SilvertonMountain for some helicpoter instagrams. And some unguided shredding. Technically it was the first day of heliskiing, but not for us. Insta by @bitchin_camaro.

A pow day never dissapoints. Pretty damn good for what can still be considered early season down here. Thanks to Davey at Wolf Creek and Jenny at Silverton Mtn for the good times!
