Road trip to the Rockies

Tahoe has been warm and sunny and all of us have been itching to get a few more pow turns in and log a few more shots for the Autumn Line movie. The forecast was looking favorable for Colorado so we packed up the truck and hit the road. The crew was Brett, Dan, Taylor Carlton and Andreas Gidlund was fresh off the plane from Sweden. It was 1 AM when we hit the road facing a 13 hour drive.
We made a stop at In N Out. This was Andreas's first time....


He liked it so much he tried to eat the tray....

We pulled into Wendover NV as the sun was coming up.... it was time for a break
