Another spring skiing delight, @snowbird is still open and keeping skiers and shredders busy in Utah. Are there any other spring skiing destinations I've missed?

This East Coast resort is STILL open today. Can anyone #NameThatNihues in the comments? Any other ski areas in New England that haven't called it yet?

📍 Split Rock Lighthouse, Minnesota
This is the third lighthouse scene I've completed for the #AmericanLandscapeProject . Do you have a favorite #lighthouse I simply must sketch?

Can you guess the identity of this #AmericanLandscapeProject sketch? Here's a hint: The #lighthouse shines bright every November 10th to commemorate a famous and disastrous shipwreck...
A lot of you spring skiing fanatics weighed in and said Palisades Tahoe is your favorite place to score late spring turns. Is there anywhere else you'd rather make slushy, soft turns?

📍Bridalveil Fall, Yosemite National Park
This has to be my favorite #AmericanLandscapeProject sketch to date! It's nearly impossible to beat the dynamics this Yosemite scene has on offer.

📍Bridalveil Fall, Yosemite National Park
Falling for 620 ft, this waterfall is often seen with wisps of translucent mist. For this composition I am sketching the cascade at a water level you might see on an early summer afternoon.

📍Bridalveil Fall, Yosemite National Park
Probably the most photographed waterfall in Yosemite, this perspective incorporates the dramatic terrain above Bridalveil Fall. As I'm looking over things, it's likely I'll make some changes to the clouds...

Happy Monday to all my #ski and #snowboard friends. Is anyone still making laps? Let me know where in the comments.
Bonus Question: Is this mystery resort still open?

This is my pal @radsmithski. His diligent practice over the years has shown me that he is more than ready to carry on the tradition of painting mountain maps by hand.
Join me in following Rad's journey as he paints a number of maps for Jackson Hole's summer terrain.
.Saddleback Maine will be directly in the path of totality for the upcoming eclipse! How many of my East Coast friends will be viewing the eclipse from their favorite mountain?

📍 Whitewater Falls, North Carolina
This is the 75th scene in my #AmericanLandscapeProject series. I initially planned to complete 50 sketches of my favorite American landscapes but I realized I just couldn't stop at 50!

📍 Whitewater Falls, NC
I'm steadily working toward the lower cascade of Whitewater Falls. This family friendly hike is well worth admiring the rolling mountains and stunning views. Where's your favorite waterfall?
