Skiing Torreys Peak // Tuning Fork Couloir

In todays adventure I venture back to Torreys peak for another 14er ski decent. I wound up heading up Emperor couloir on the north side of this peak and ski down Tuning Fork Couloir which skied amazing and was hiding some beautiful snow.
Torreys peak sits at 14,267′ is hard to beat for ski mountaineering due to the many great lines on different aspects and easy accessibility. Skied 5/24

[@jakekaiser1399]

Thanks and for sure a lot of mediocre amateur influence on these skiing videos

[@markspragins9551]

Nice turns. Snow looks solid but still somewhat forgiving.

[@jakekaiser1399]

Snow was so much better than I expected as climb up Emperor was very wind impacted and funky. Glad I headed over to Tuning Fork
Thanks for watching

Got to ski Emperor a few days after this and tuning fork was looking ripe!
