With the most interesting winter on record the Alpine Assassins were on a search for pow. Randy and the Utah crew had snow in December 2012 and were off to a good start. While Ken and Duncan in Tahoe had not seen enough snow to ride and had to take it on the road. The pacific north west had been getting pounded all year, with some decent snow to the east as well, so they went to Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, then caught a few pow days in Tahoe, back north to the Mt baker shootout, and then on to Canada.
