[@LucasCatania17]

massive thank you to Ryan and Deer Valley for letting me tag along on this super unique experience! stoked for the future of Deer Valley and Utah skiing altogether!

[@shawneggers4484]

Said it before but I’m SO STOKED for you to be getting these ‘perks’. You have put in so much ‘quality’ work over the past years that you deserve every one of them. Big Kudos my friend!

[@Andy-rp3ee]

Getting to ski first tracks with Ted Ligety and company is pretty dang cool man.

[@bedforbj]

What a cool experience!! Glad you got to be a part of it, and thanks for sharing.

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you! it was super rad!

[@jaymoneyyuyy]

you gotta come back to targhee they’ve added a new life with 600 acres of terrain since you’ve been there

[@chriskutlina5743]

Wow! Thats a whole new meaning to first tracks lol

[@LucasCatania17]

haha yeah for real!

[@brettbrocoff6955]

Glad they got you out there. Should be noted that is all natural snow. There is a lot of good skiing out there

[@LucasCatania17]

yeah! none of that was manmade.

[@michae8jackson378]

That was badass Lucas! First tracks on new mountain! The stuff of dreams.....

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks man! cool opportunity for sure!

[@davec.1045]

Nice! I used to bowhunt there in the late 70's early 80's; before Deer Valley and Jordanell. That dark north slope timber had a zoo's worth of wildlife. Grizzly Adams was filmed in the area. I was at the Bird this day. Love our backyard. The Wasatch is special. Thanks Lucas! (I keep looking for ya but I'm sure to run into you when I least expect it...)😜Alta Thursday was another special one.

[@LucasCatania17]

nice man! glad youve been having good days out there!

[@ronwilson5210]

Young brother. If it gets any better you won't know how to be. So pleased & proud that you are afforded the opportunity! Well deserved! 😊❤

[@Jay__EL]

Trailer is so good. You are killing it. Keep pushing!!!

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks jay!

[@justinbayola]

what an honor and a blessing for you brother! Stoking!

[@selkirk.powder]

Hoo boy! Way to get in the mix Lucas. Go Deer Valley! To any of you ...come on up and see how we open our new 6,250 acre Selkirk Mountain powder paradise starting Jan. 2025 w snowcat-assisted bc ski tours. While it's not a big $$ op like what you see here, it's going to be very exciting and provide marvelous powder skiing... in the trees! Guided and only 10 riders per day!! #catskiing #backcountryskiing #selkirkmountains #priestlake #coolin #idaho #ownprivateidaho #thesoulofskiing #guided #skiing & #snowboarding

[@Skibum2023]

That was so friggin cool dude! Your own TRAIL….Awesome Lucas, you earned it bro! Thanks for bringing all,of us on this incredible experience that most will never , ever be able to do! What a beautiful journey. Thank you, thank you, thank you man.

[@ronwilson5210]

I may have mis-judged. East Village view to the Jordannelle is Tahoe-esque! Buy anything close. Midway, while you can!

[@paulweiland1948]

So cool!! Cannot wait to explore this new terrain in the coming years. Thanks for sharing!

[@Basketballisgreat3045]

What a great experience, thanks for sharing with us. I'm looking forward to skiing Park City and Deer Valley in about 2 weeks.

[@paulbrownjr8676]

[@jacksultan8146]

So cool, Lucas! As usual amazing footage! Thanks! 🙏👍

[@LucasCatania17]

[@drewflanagan8]

Super rad they let you test out the new terrain. Cool experience not many people will get the chance to see!

[@LucasCatania17]

yeah i agree! had to jump on the opportunity for sure

[@Hudson-M]

That looks so fun. It was so sick to meet you and ski with you today you are even better in person.

[@LucasCatania17]

nice to meet you man!

[@hawlikd]

I am so jealous of your hard earned opportunity. From Whislter BC.

[@rayrayjj]

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks zach!

[@vhalmrast]

Love to see it!

[@kuau714]

wow that looks amazing can't wait to get out there on the new terrain

[@LucasCatania17]

yeah me neither!

[@chrismarkham4728]

The terrain looks really mellow and that new area is south facing and don't hold snow well. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.

[@jacksultan8146]

What a exciting moment for sure

[@LucasCatania17]

yeah no doubt!

[@tt55k]

That was a great experience , Ryan hooked you up!

[@LucasCatania17]

yeah totally!

[@skiman4617]

This looks sick!! Nice video man

[@darrenottley7500]

Sooo cool!!!!

[@michaelpanagiotis7109]

Fun !

[@blokebmx]

For the Stoke squad!!!!

[@cliang001]

Insane. Not many can say they were amongst the first to ski brand new terrain like that.

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks chin. definitely cool to be apart of the first people back in that zone.

[@andrewmahoney5099]

What a cool video

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you!

[@owen_som]

Just copped some Dalbello boots, from the Catania homeland!

[@LucasCatania17]

nice bro!

[@Chlothesoccergirl1]

sooo cool

[@LucasCatania17]

agree!!

[@gravity8000]

I think they definitely need someone to test the new terrain on Telemark gear. I volunteer😊

[@idreamcaster]

Why is your two skis so close together when you slalom? Your skis are so close they are almost touching?

[@comesatime123]

Nice video of the upper part of the expansion. This terrain is mostly South & East facing plus the new base is low at 6,500’ so they are installing a lot of snow making. Alterra has said it plans on it being accessible through the Ikon pass but I would expect them to charge more for it. Even though they own Deer Valley they only offer five days on their most expensive Ikon pass and you have to pay $3,000+ for a separate unlimited pass to Deer Valley. Oh, and btw, both Ikon and Epic are raising prices 8% for next season. Ugh.

[@LucasCatania17]

the regular ikon pass gets you 7 days to deer valley, not 5

[@comesatime123]

Have you done the Wasatchs Interconnect tour Deer Valley > Solitude > Alta > Snowbird? No skins required, backcountry tour. Would be a great episode.

[@jgg0207]

Do you know if originally the mayflower resort was going to allow snowboarders?

[@LucasCatania17]

No idea!

[@SnowSqueak]

Nice place ⛷

[@LucasCatania17]

yup

[@Mmcleant]

Neat to see how the “content” sausage is made.

[@stefangonzo]

First-est tracks

[@hawlikd]

Deer Valley . . . $$$$$

[@alexandermrak4556]

Have you seen the 2025 armada skis yet?

[@philiplacey5430]

They can name a run after you, "Lucky Lucas".

[@LucasCatania17]

haha! that would be rad

[@CarvingTracks]

Do you know how much expert terrain will be on the new side?

[@LucasCatania17]

no idea

[@sammarsh9197]

will you be able to board at Mayflower?

[@LucasCatania17]

no, deer valley is expanding their terrain. it isnt a new resort or mountain.

[@christianwestling2019]

Awesome vid! Mayflower is a better name than East Village.

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you!

[@dominicpotente6428]

Homie didn’t want anyone near any 🌲

[@LucasCatania17]

yeah no trees!

[@kevinboyle7861]

Maybe one day they’ll grow up and let all mountain sports have access.

[@sugar-free5948]

Yeah…Fuck Deer Valley 😂😂😂

[@LucasCatania17]

Lol

[@JamesClark-e9h]

Yawn. Zzzzzzz to that terrain. No wonder they groomed it first.

[@ccpmarch1980]
