More Powder Hits Tahoe

We received 8″ of snow over night, a perfect excuse to get out and shoot some video. The mountain was shocked in with clouds, so it was a tough day on the lighting side of things. I went out with Eric Burkholm from the Heavenly Ski Patrol. The good thing about rolling with Eric is he always knows where to get the fresh untracked snow. We dropped off the ridge in Mott Canyon and skied “Sharkeys” into Killebrew Canyon. This was my first time playing with the new head cam, which captured some awesome shots. Check out what you missed from yesterday.

Big Snow @ Heavenly 01/21/10

Another foot of snow fell last night here in Tahoe, and it’s still dumping. Storms this week have produced high winds along the ridges, keeping the upper mountain closed. Today is one of the first days the entire mountain is open. The temperatures have been very cold, which in turn has dropped some really light snow. Dane Henry and myself headed out to grab some shots and make some turns. We made first tracks in Mott Canyon, dropping Susanne’s Saddle and North 40. The snow is amazing, some of the lightest I have skied in a while. Dane and I took turns filming each other and a couple of friends. Check out the edit from today.

Killebrew Canyon – Cliff Drops & Steep Chutes

After a scouting mission a couple of weeks ago, Dane Henry and myself headed out to killebrew Canyon with Ty Dayberry and Ben Schmitt, two ripping skiers. With escort from Heavenly’s ski patrol we were able to get into Killebrew before the general public. Once again Dane was on the ridge line shooting the wide shots, while I followed the athletes grabbing the tight shots. Here is my edit, it’s also playing on the front page of freeskier.com

Killebrew Canyon Location Scouting

With help once again from Heavenly’s Ski Patrol, Dane Henry and myself got a personal guided tour through Killebrew Canyon. Armed again with two cameras, Dane shot the wide shot from the promise lands, and I grabbed the tights from below the fingers. Even though we captured some killer video, this was ultimately a scouting for future shoots in the canyon.
Thanks to Jeremy and Colton for showing us the goods.

Happy Holidays

I went out this morning and shot a couple of clips, and played in the new snow. It’s looking like the holidays are going to be good around here in Tahoe. My friend and ski patrol Brendan Mcgraw joined me for a run, and helped me grab a couple of ski shots.
Hope every one has Happy Holidays.

High Roller Team – Sunset Shoot

Another busy week of shooting and editing fly’s by. Last week I was lucky enough to be a part of a sunset Photo/Video shoot with the Heavenly High Roller Team. What an amazing shoot, 15 -20 of South Lake Tahoe’s best Skiers and Snowboarders got to session in Canyon Park until sundown. Not to mention a perfect Tahoe sunset that lit up the sky with the most unbelievable colors.

Terren Gomez was shooting the still images and Dane Henry and I captured the video. We brought out all the toys, 2 Panasonic HVX’s, Dolly, Jib Arm…..
Check out Dane’s edit below.
