Title: Walking on Clouds
Location: Sidecountry from top of the Perisher Quad.
Desc: Some family came to visit from the Gold Coast, with some fresh falls and it was a nice day to explore the sidecountry in search of unridden bowls. Mission accomplished.

Title: Paradise Found.

Had go at setting up a few shots of myself at a little rock drop. Took a few go’s to get it right but have got it pretty dialed now. Set the self timer for 10 seconds, activate with the wireless remote once in position and time the drop in for 4 seconds of continuous shooting of 10fps.

Title: Lunchbreak Tree Lines
Date: 27/07/2015
Location: Tree Ridge, Pretty Valley, Perisher
Desc: Right around the time of the Antarctic Vortex we were getting fresh dumps almost daily. This became my go-to place for my lunch-break run, guaranteed fresh powder tree runs daily for about a week straight.

Title: Late lunch whiteout
Date: 27/07/2015
Location: Top of the Quad, Perisher
Desc: Those days it just pukes on and off all day. One moment its clear and fresh lines, next minute you hop off the chair, about to drop in, and dump, whiteout. First world problems. Made extra special when its the week some family visits from the Gold Coast.

Title: Powder Bowl
Date: 01/08/2015
Location: Pleasant Valley, Blue Cow
Desc: One of those bluebird days you score mid-season on your day off, right after a dump, I remember in this particular bowl the powder was so thick and fluffy when you got to the bottom you got buried in it. Never going to complain about sinking in powder in Australia…
