Mount Brohemia
With warm weather and lack of snowfall plaguing the northeast the Meatheads crew decided to make the voyage to a top-secret zone where mullets, pow and pillows are plentiful. Where is this ski oasis you may be asking? Mt Bohemia located on the Keweenaw Peninsula of upper Michigan is where this untamed dreamland lies. So untamed in fact that it took two Wild Stallions by the names of Giray Dadali and Dan Marion to fully pillage the terrain. The terrain of Mt Bohemia consisted of countless cliffs, pillows and technical tree skiing to make even the most savvy question their eastern location. Along with wild terrain the resort was bestowed with hundreds of inches of lake affect snow, which allowed the stallions to fully enjoy their surroundings.

The crew got down and dirty right off the bat, starting out on the inbounds terrain and making use of the new snowfall from the prior days. With our guide Steve showing us all the secret spots the Stallions were able to give the inbounds terrain a proper slashing.

After receiving some local knowledge the crew was out to scout some of the fabled cliff bands and backcountry terrain of the region. They were rewarded and found countless minigolf lines and even a few backcountry jump spots. For the next 3 days the weather remained warm and sunny allowing the untamed stallions to roam free.

Nice work fellas. I skied Bohemia five years ago when they were first getting off the ground. Nice to see they're still going strong. That place is great.
