3. vail
4. park city
5. keystone
6. loveland
7. arapahoe basin
8. breckenridge
9. winter park
heading up to snowbasin today!
Enjoy snowbasin. That’s where I started skiing! I love that place
Sick Opening Day
Need to add steamboat springs to that list this week. But snowbird looked sick.
Stoked for the Snowbasin trip!!!!
Good opening. But not even close to sickest ever....
Wow, what a start to the season, to think, this was the beginning of one of the most insane seasons of all time.
Holy ish! I can't believe how great the Cirque looks for this early in the season. So happy for you and everyone back in UT.
Thanks Brent! Looks like winter out there!
My grandpa used to be a cat mechanic at snowbird, somehow he ended up being able to cop an old big wooden “Gadzooks!” Sign. It’s still hanging up in my grandparents living room and I think it’s pretty awesome
that is so cool man haha what a legend
That’s pretty sick ngl
Blue bird, pow day, opening day, in November. Doesn't get much better than that.
That sound of skiing pow at 13:53 is pure bliss dude. I'm so glad the GoPro can pick that up.
Seriously dude. The sounds of skiing are beautiful
Lucas, I'm 61 and just viewed your Targhee stop. Was there 16 years ago and it ripped then as now. I am a very recent addict to your videos. The videos make my heart smile, keep up your freedom homie. John
Love that John. Thanks so much for taking the time to watch
So happy to see you back, Lucas! Insane conditions early at Snowbird. I’m so jealous!
Hope that you make it to Alta also. Happy Trails!🤘
Thanks Susan! I’ll be at Alta Monday!
Excellent! I’m just catching up on your videos this season and was that Ryan Cochran-Siegle you shot at Copper? If it was, I’m a huge fan. He absolutely killed it last year in Italy. I follow the US Ski Team on the FIS tour.
That was an awesome job you did!
Dude, your mom looks almost exactly like my mom. Kind of took me back for a second, even sounds like her. Used to ski the bird decades ago, thanks for taking me down some runs, brought back some good memories.
hahaha thats wild man! maybe they are dopplegangers
Alta and Snowbird truly are the best hills in the world.... Definitely nailed that comment
Getting all the love and pow you deserve. Thanks for the stoke and thanks for taking us along for another awesome ride!
Thanks brother! Solid day out there.
Snowbird is my all time fav mountain as well. Lived in Aspen worked at Snowmass for a few years but I always come home to Snowbird. Dick Bass and crew did a wonderful job building such a wonderful family resort
yes snowbird is #1
Lmao the dude whacking his pole for the stoke
Haha dude whatever gets ya going!
Something about seeing you ski the Utah resorts gets me PUMPED dude!!! we're blessed with this early season this year man so stoked to see you not taking it for granted!!! LFG
Haha thanks bro! I love the Utah mountains dude. Who knows if we’ll get any more snow this year so gotta get it while it’s here 😂😂
Wow!! Love hearing that powder “poof… poof” sound on opening day!! Thanks for the awesome report brother!
The sounds of skiing dude!
Come on the elk was hungry for that pow!
I know, I could have used the stoke elk b
dawg your like in every ski vid i see in the comment 😂❤
these are like the best condtions on the east coast. cottonwood canyons are something else!
Yeah man it’s a whole different world up there
Did my first Utah spring ski at Snowbird back in "89. Loved it ever since! There is a reason for the "Greatest Snow on Earth"! Be there soon!
Wow man 1989 musta been nuts at da bird!
The views and scenery in this video are absolutely STUNNING! 😮❤
It’s so beautiful dude!
Great vid as always! Looks like a super sick opening day!
Thanks Josh!
Holy crap!!! Those conditions were amazing for an opening day. They probably need some additional snow to open my favorite run "Regulator Johnson". I love skiing the scrub brush over there. Seems like hardly anyone ever skis that section!!!
Thanks for bringing us along!!!
Mo-
thanks morgan! definitely an amazing opening day!
Looks amazing. Hope the snow keeps coming all season!
Yup me too haha
Snowbird will always have a place in my heart!
the best place out there!!
My legs are burning just watching you. I have to get back to Snowbird this season. Thanks
Thanks Fred! Awesome place snowbird is
@@LucasCatania17 I think that we are definitely going to get back there before February. Love the Mineral Basin side despite only one lift. Think snow!
Awesome awesome awesome, love the footage, they have a lot open. Thanks for the journey.
Thanks for watching dave!
Loving the quality, consistent, daily uploads. Stoked to start the season in 49 days. Wish I was skiing now.
thanks kevin! stoked for your first day dude
Awesome opening!👍👏🏻
yes it was!!
that was absolutely insane...that tower 3 run/chute towards the end looked soooo good!
Thanks Bryan! Best run of the year!!
Super invigorating video! Can't wait for face shots!
Thanks joe!
Wow, just wow. Such a sick opening day. Stoked for you. I seem to keep missing the storms and rope drops. Now watch your channel more than any other snow channel. Shhhh, don't tell buckhouse.
it was so sick man. sickest opening day ive ever been apart of haha
Man, Snowbird always lives up to expectations, what a sick video!
Yes dude so sick!!
YESSSS!!! What better way to start a day skiiing than by Skiiing Snowbird on Opening day! Great videos, glad I found your channel!
Thank you Tom!!
Snowbird opening that much terrain on day 1 is what legends are made of. Gotto hoot and hollar under a lift line, though!
yes man they are legends!
Sick ❄️❄️❄️ so much open stoked for you.
Thanks bon! Such a beautiful day.
I love your enthusiasm ❤️❄️❤️ I too am a big fan of LCC, can’t wait to make it up there
How can you not be stoked in the mountains??
Wow! this place looks amazing, the only place I really ever skied was in Breckenridge but this place looks phenomenal especially how there's so much snow this early.
Glad u had a great day riding at the bird. 25 yrs of riding the bird, easily the top opening day. private resort, walk on chairs all day. . snowbird was nice enough to give the employees a ski day before opening in gad valley so peruvian gulch was the place to b first thing, pretty much untracked with a great traverse put in to make to the top of cirque which was blower first thing. wish i could met u, and showed around. have a great season
That is sick dude!!
bro this is great content! you getting stoked and excited is awesome!! keep it up, you're motivating us all!!
Thanks brother! Stoked you enjoy it.
Unreal Lucas!! So sweet. Go live the stoke!!!
Thank you Shawn!!
Way better then those opening days in Colorado! Snowbird is an incredible place!
Not even a comparison!!
Definitely got me stoked for the season!
Heck yeah dude stoked!!
Lucas and his JJ's. Name a better combo
hahaha ill wait..
Opening day snowbird , no one knew what an epic year it would be ! I knew it was going to be a big snow year even if all the experts said it wasn’t , but I did not know it would blast through all records . What a year , had a lot of fun watching your videos enjoying the snow.
When I thought the stoke couldn’t get any higher Lucas hit me with “I’m now heading over to Peruvian!!!”
haha couldnt leave that whole side out!
Cirque laps on opening day!?!? So sick Lucas another banger
Right dude?! So insane
The crunch of the snow @13:00 omg 😫
Haha so satisfying
Insane conditions! Pre-thanks giving! Mad jealous
For sure dude! Just nuts up there!!
Hype!!!!! Always amazing shots and clean edits
Thanks bro!
Great video, these videos always make me so pumped to go skiing, keep it up
Awesome mark! Appreciate you watching dude
Cirque looks KILLER. Stoked for you brother. Can't wait to get out there myself.
it was incredible for opening day!
Your comment about rocks at Snowbird is true. The mountain is a ton of granite. You can hit "rocks" after 100". Of course, they aren't rocks, but granite. I've skied there on and off for 35 years, and probably had 6 season passes. I hit a rock yearly every time I do there.
yea for sure!
Wow what a day, wow, stoked that you got such an epic opening day at the Bird in November....whaaaat!
Yessir!! Thanks for watching dude
Also my favorite resort, wish I could have made it up there! Awesome video
Thanks James!!
8:51 the cliff at meadows I was talking about is just a little bigger then that! You got this!!
For sure dude
KNEW YOU WERE GONNA BE AT SNOWBIRD HAHA. Went to Alta and conditions were also AMAZING. Keep up the dope shots!
thats sick dude alta looked amazing!
More snow coming around a week from now !!! Awesome video!
Yes!! That’s what we need
So genius to do all these opening days. Keep killing it!
thanks grant!
I was right there with you, snowbird never disappoints!
Never a bad day at the bird!
i was at snowbird yesterday! Definitely one of the best early season trips I've had in a LONG time.
Right?! Felt like January out there
trip booked to the bird and am thankful for the inspiration, bro... on to the next one! g
lets goo grady sick
Awesome opening day
it was unreal!
You are doing great things man! Keep it up! Love the vids!
Thank you Chris!!
Hey Lucas, what a sick opening day again! You already got a lot of snow in the early season. I hope we will get a lot of snow in Europe soon too!
Thanks Markus! Yes hoping it makes it your way too 🙌🏽
So dope man. Can’t wait to hit this when I get back to the states!
Yes dude it’s a must!
I'm stoked man! I know this one will be another banger!
Thanks dude! Hope you enjoyed.
Re-watching all your vid’s I cant wait to get back at it!!
I love and hate these videos, u make some great videos, show me what great ski resorts there are, but I hate that I cant have the fun you have. I cant wait to finally take my board out. Great video as always!
Haha my bad man. I’m stoked you take time to watch them dude!
Unreal! Pray for at least a few days like this in New England this season
will do man!
love snowbird. I'm going to brighton on the 30th but soon will be getting day passes at snowbird. looks amazing there.
nice dude! two solid resorts!
That was totally insane some really crazy turns you were putting in there just barreling down that's feeling is so cushy
haha thanks jack!
Luuuuuuucas!
What up dude
cant wait for the season to start in the east coast，watching your vids make me so excited
Awesome dude. Glad they get the stoke rolling
I cant wait to get some turns in myself. You make going down those double look so easy.
Thanks man. Stoked for your first turns
INSANE! That's the only word for it. February in November. Best video yet. 👍
So true man! Thanks for watching.
Bro that lower cirque run!!! 🔥
Sooo nice
You got me tearing up due to joiy IM SO READY

dude I need to get over to the states, that looked seriously epic! I've just booked my second week of skiing in the alps for the 2023 season...January then March, can't wait!
Wow dude that is super rad! Alps are sick
So sick dude!
Yoo thanks DC!!
its always weird seeing videos like this, because I work here so its just a normal day for me. I forget that this is so many people favorite resort and they just come up here to ski cause they love it.
probably the best resort in the entire country!
@@LucasCatania17 glad you love it! im working the baby lifts this year so I'll never see you but I'm glad you're out on the mountain ripping the snow
This is so awesome!
Thanks Jason!!
Looked at the trail you map you gotta send camonix chutes! Looks narly
For sure dude
My favorite place. Mentally skiing the runs with ya🏔
awesome monique!
That is so hilarious My brother and I would do the same thing haul ass on the cat walk and beat everyone to the pow 😂😂😂
YEEWW, cant wait to watch this vid🤙🤙
yeww enjoy!
wow, Snowbird is a favorite of mine, gotta get back there.
best place out there!
solid knee to waist high florida scale... yeah it was a pow day! Lessgo!
haha yes dude les gooo pow pow
Wow that was ridiculous. I love Snowbird too... I got to ski 4 days last year at Snowbird/Alta. Such great mountains... running top to bottom laps on the Gondola... come on! Not to mention the backside.
Let us know when you're coming to CA... I'm a mid-week Sugar Bowl skier!
cant beat the bird haha! ill be in ca in december!
Looks like ski patrol took all the goods
Dude! Bummed it there back in 95-97. I’m so jealous. I’m in the Dolomites now and the mountains are pretty but the snow is shite!
That’s so sick! Crazy to think what it was like back then
@@LucasCatania17 the 95-96 season was so good that we didn’t even go up the canyon on our days off unless it was a foot of fresh, which was very often.
One of the best powder ski resorts in the entire world My brother and I spent a lot of time there in the '80s I was telling you that Lucas that place is unbelievable moisture content of the snow can be anywhere from 6 and 8% on a really dry storm super powwows
yes man nothing like the utah snow!
Siccckk day to say the least....Bassackwards always get you there! Coverage looked good as well didnt here to much clatter.....my dishes are still sitting there while i watch the video!
Haha thanks Scott! It was gorgeous out there
Looks absolutely wonderful. Wish I can go to west coast. I’ve been boreding for 10yr and never been
Gotta put it on your list man!
Sick video. My home mountain Blue mountain PA opens on Friday and I have Jackson hole booked for 1/24-2/1
Nice dude! JHMR is gonna be sick
INSANE MAN THATS WHY THE BIRD IS THE BEST
Seriously dude amen!
Killington opened around yesterday.
Nice!!
wow thats so crazy they had that much terrain open on day 1. what an experience. First day for me this weekend!!!! WOO HOOOO
Let’s gooo Liam. Enjoy man
Great video man. Totally know that feeling of stoke you had on the first lift where it’s like your heart / guts are in your throat and your almost speechless, just beaming with excitement. Great way to describe that special feeling. Keep up the stoke and amazing content
Thanks Adam. Sounds like you know the exact feeling I was experiencing :)
Nice Montec jacket btw, just bought one myself...
Amazing opening day!! Powder every where I love it!! Wish I was ripping that shit...
Dude it was so good!
Best vid yet!
Thanks Owen!
Fire video dude keep shredding
appreciate that grady!
