Terrain parks are great, but sometimes overrun by tons of people, with hard icy landings.  Powder landings are awesome, but building the jumps in the backcountry can be difficult and time consuming.  Enter Peter Colombo and Cory Smith, as well as some private land, a great idea, and a snow cat.  These guys built a backcountry terrain park, with hard packed take offs and powder landings.  Needless to say, they had the place to themselves.

I just got a new helmet and a pair of goggles from Smith Optics, and thought I would pay a little tribute to their founder and "original pow slayer," Bob Smith.  The best part of the video is at the end when the narrator suggests commentary for Bob.  "Hey Bob, do those goggles really work?"

"Yeaaaaaaaaaah man!"
