Mother nature delivered record breaking snow fall last year, but she is holding back the precipitation this season so far in the West and Europe. It is early yet, so here is an animation to get us thinking about what can still come!

Jesse rodeo flip at night with snow falling lite up like stars at a Tahoe City 1/4 pipe

They built and maintained this 10 to 12 foot 1/4 pipe by hand and with snow blower right next to James Coles house.  I was filming from inside the garage when it was snowing. Got some cool looking images when Jame’s camera flash went off. Good times!!!
