Bridger Bowl opened up a new lift in the slushmans drainage south of the ski area and opened up a ton of new terrain to explore, and also provided easy access to the ridge like never before. It's going to take a while to explore. . .

John,
Beautiful photos of folks hiking up to Saddle Peak from the new lift Got to admit the lack of Backcounty ethics (especially one skier on avalanches slopes at a time) being shown is extremely scary. The deceptively mellow upper pitch ends in killer cliffs. People skiing back to the lift are skiing directly under the cliffs back to lifts. When small sloughs start on the upper pitch, they frequently funnel together to become very large by the time they crash over the cliffs. Any chance you could help spread the word and educate backcountry/ sidecountry travelers about safe travel tips?

Saddle Peak Loop ethics and danger aside, you have managed to capture some more, award winning, low light photos. I like the art.
