Kiting at the Beartooth Cloudline

Yesterday I made the drive through Yellowstone Park and up the Beartooth Hwy. Parked at the gate above Long Lake and made the short walk to where I could launch. Kited the around the West Summit Switchbacks, in super smooth fresh powder, below the West Summit. The base is solid. W-NW wind – No Gusts! Cloud ceiling was just below the summit. Fully powered on the 13m as the afternoon progressed to evening. Around 8p.m. weather began to storm w/ dumpage. Gravity turns back to the truck. Today is gonna be sick!!! Fresh pow awaits!!! Will the highway open today??? Wait and see….

Noah-

OMFG man, that is so badA$$.

I can't take anymore of this, us Boise-boys are jumping in the whip and driving out to your Beartooths!

Next Weds is a ways out, but you think the wind & temps will be worth making the long trip up there?

Vail pass is still about 95 % full !!!!!!
You can still snowmobile form the parking lot and Snowkite on top.
