Ak first day

27-Apr

We woke up to a perfect day with blue sky and no wind. We went out in the heli early morning to start looking for good runs, it looked easy with all the beautiful mountains, but it was not. The days before we arrived it had been hard winds which had hammered the snow into hardpack. We flew really deep into the mountain range and found some good stuff. In my first run i had great powder, on the top stomped a cliff and then straight lined out, second run I found my way threw a really cool and steep glacier although the snow was shitty. Third run I lined up a little bit more difficult line, it all looked like good powder snow  and the first turns was great but then the snow got harder and harder. Jumping a cliff in the middle I gained to much speed in the landing and got out of control trying to slow down. I did some ballet moves and in the end i twisted my knee badly. That was it for me I packed my things and flew back home to see a knee specialist.
