Back in the BC

I’ve been skiing resort more than usual this year to try to get better at skiing.  Yesterday before work, we climbed and skied Tallac, a Tahoe classic and it felt great to be back in the backcountry.  We wanted to scare ourselves a bit and ski the hanging snowfield to the chute seen in the middle of this photo. 

It isn’t particularly difficult terrain, but the 100′ cliff at the bottom makes you ski pretty cautiously.  Fun times before work!

Here is some of my GoPro footage:
