Snowboarding on a mountain without lifts


White grass is a Cross Country Touring Center and doesn't have any lifts. They used to have an old Truck body halfway up the first slope, they ran a rope tow off back in the fifties, but now it's all strictly human power. "Lifts are for wimps." Unless you get a snowmobile to take you up the mountain, it's all up to you to get up there. I strapped on a pair of snowshoes and hiked up three mile to Falls Overlook and then up Weiss Ascent to catch my breath and come back down the main run on my snowboard.
