(HD) Wasatch Mountain Podcast
Summary: Crossroad Studios is taking it to the peaks for the 2010-2011 season, climbing every summit in the Wasatch Mountains over 11,000 ft. The Wasatch Summit Project will be high above the ski resorts ripping the powder in ways most of Utah has never seen. The allure of Utah’s pristine backcountry has spurred the conception of this year video project, which will follow a group of local riders/mountaineers through the winter season, capturing their struggles and successes as they try to reach the summits of these 22 prominent peaks. A growing hit-list of chutes, spines, flakes, and runs await them as they make this difficult journey. http://crossroadstudios.com

Provo Peak (11,068') marks the next summit on the hit list, when the boys discover alpine ice crust existing on all the summits above 10,500'. Leaving the peak-bagging for later in the season, the crew sessions the trees and couloirs of the mid-elevation slopes and ride the blower Utah powder in classic Wasatch form.
Another season starts off strong when the boys summit two peaks over 11,000', adding Superior and Monte Cristo to their list of mountains to climb for 2011. Featuring the talents of Parker Alec Cross, Andy Earl, Hayden Price, and Blake Nyman, episode one will keep you hungering for more.
In response to what viewers like you have asked for, the Wasatch Team put a whole lot of miles on their boots, snowmobiles, and chairlifts to generate the hardest hitting episode yet.
