Brighton January Pow and Free Avalanche Clinics | Brighton for the past week has been amazing. With all the new snow we have had a few days of solid weather in to get in some sick powder days. To make it even better the Millicent lift is now open making endless pow days after a storm. With that new snow the avalanche conditions have been pretty sketchy. Two lucky kids found that out the hard way after one of them cruised down a huge face after a huge slide. The kid ended up walking out of the mess, somehow. The next day both kids were at the free avalanche awareness clinic held at the Brighton lodge. For those of you that missed out on the opportunity you have two more chances this year to get some new knowledge, or even just to brush up a little. The dates are February 5th and March 5th at 5:00 PM. So put that date on your calender now.
- No shortage of people to shred with on the Millicent traverse.
- If you want to ride pow a few days after a storm Brighton is the place to get your fix, while everything else is tracked.
- One of the many awesome zones that has countless natural terrain features. Mark and Andrew getting ready for Josh Jarvis to send it for the Brighton Bunch.
- Kyle Lopiccolo looking like he's storing nuts for winter in that cheek. Check out the Kyle Lopiccolo vs. Tranny Finder to see how he broke some of his face.
- Insane slide on Pioneer Ridge. It's insane that the kid caught in that walked out of it.
- Here is the kid's board that got caught up avalanche. Luckily it was the only thing that got split in two after hitting a tree.
- Good attendance at the avalanche clinic. It's really cool that Brighton does that for free. Check out the Know Before You Go blog lower on the page. Then make sure you come to the next one if you didn't make it.
