Snowboarding the Angel of Shavano is always being a dream ever since I started climbing 14ers back in 2017. Last couple years I have been improving my backcountry snowboarding skills. This year we didn't get as much snow as we have in years past so I was worried there wouldn't be enough snow. Started a little later than I wanted to start at 6 am, but we were moving at a good pace. We took the summer standard trail all the way to were it intersects the angel and from there we climb right through the angels head to the summit. I ditched my snowboard around 13,700 feet were snow became patchy and hiked to the summit and made it by 9:30 am. Took a little break and enjoyed the view for a few minutes, I had intended to tag Tabagache Peak too, but it was starting to warming up and the #1 goal was to snowboard the angel so I ran down from summit to my board, strapped in just in time. Snow was still a bit hard at the top, but perfect corn as I started going down through the arm and body of the angel, snowboarded all the way down to the basin. There was a little dry patch there only like 100 ft walked it, then strapped again and rode all the way to treeline on slush like snow at this point, beautiful day. The hike out through the was ok post holed a bit as snow was warmer, but to follow all the way to main trail.
