Dylan Hart Photography Presents: A Mt. Baker Moment

Posted by: DylanHartPhoto / added: 01.05.2011 / Back to What Up

Just south of the Canadian border is a small ski area with a very big reputation.  The terrain here is so wild and crazy that people from all over the world flock there to get a taste of the deep snow and steep lines.  Many legacies were born in these mountains, and many lives were altered.  No matter what, where, how, or why, people will continue to fall in love with this place each and every season.

Let us honor our fallen snow warriors, and remember the risks that exist in the land of makebelieve.  A praise for snow and to the dreams it brings to life.

The base has reached over 100 inches and the conditions are starting to allow for some serious hucking and high-speed destruction.  The holidays are gone and the slopes are looking a little more inhabitable.  Bring an extra pair of goggles and your longest board, because you'll most likely have to face storms and whiteout conditions.  You probably already knew that though...

Amazingly, for the Northwest, the snow is still blower after a week of sun.

Undeniably delicious

Such sharp images and clarity of both image and intent.
You make one want to drop what he's doing and get out there and experience the world as you know it! The photos seem alive and irresistably delectable.
Tks
