Glades

Sweetgrass Productions in Japan’s Backcountry

This ski video is filmed in Hokkaido Japan in some insanely deep and fresh powder.

The filming is top notch with beautiful lighting and amazing camera angles of people skiing, snowboarding, and telemarking in the Japanese backcountry. The skiers do all sorts of tricks including flips and inversions in the glades as well as above the treeline.

Never thought the skiing in Japan was so good!

Mad River Glen: Skiing in the Woods

Here is a skiing video of some guy skiing through the glades at Mad River Glen in Vermont. Mad River Glen is one of my favorite resorts and it’s in Vermont. It is a backcountry skier’s heaven as it has plenty of snow and some of the most unforgiving terrain possible all with a “ski it if you can” policy. This ski video is a bit short but the skiing is solid and shows some of the terrain available out there.

Skiing Big Jay and Jay Peak, Vermont

It just snowed 60 inches in the past couple days and these guys decided to hike up Big Jay. Big Jay is a mountain located near Jay Peak, Vermont. It is accessed by a 1 to 1.5 hour long hike from the peak. It is all backcountry glades out there and lots of pure, outouched, virgin powder.
