Staying Stoked During Utah’s Drought
By: Forrest Gladding

I’ll be honest, this is far from the best winter I have had in the Wasatch. Saying that, I still rather have a bad year in Utah than an epic winter in most places. So what have I been doing with myself this winter? Lots of resort riding, lots of splitboarding and even some more surfing. I am feeling lucky to still score pow and waves this winter. Stay stoked!

Me again, not too bad for a 40 year old! Snowboarding keeps you young!
My wife Melanie enjoys the fresh snow at Snowbird. I love that smile. Go team mom!

My son finally is big enough to have a splitboard. Here he is on his way to the top of Patsy Marley via Grizzly Gulch.
My son Sam stands on top of Patsy Marley.
Just because it was his first tour on a splitboard, doesn’t mean he is a stranger to powder!
Sam quickly learns the benefits of splitboarding!
Jon and Quin head up for another lap in Silver Fork.
Yeah when it snows in Utah, it usually dumps!
February wasn’t all powder for me. I actually surfed as many days in California as I got on my board in Utah for the month!
Warm temps and offshore winds, what more could you ask for!
Take me back!!!!
