Grizzly Gulch Getdown

Grizzly Gulch Getdown by Everwild Collective

Backstory: We wanted this song to be a total barn burner hoedown like the first Grizzly Gulch Getdown we attended back around 2014. It's a yearly tradition for the Alta Snowboarding Club to throw a party in Grizzly Gulch, a backcountry area above Alta Ski Resort, Utah. Great energy, high stoke, fun vibes, and just enough chaos to make it legendary. This one’s for those days when the whole zone feels like a party.

Lyrics:

First light hittin’ on Devil’s Castle wall
Beacon checks chirpin’ in the Albion lot call
Cold ones in packs, skins stickin’ just right
All the same damn faces – didn’t need the invite

Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown – bring your crew
Everybody’s welcome, just don’t block the skintrack, dude
Skintrack highway, side by side
Splitters cruisin’ while the skiers glide

Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
Blue skies or snowin’ we’re goin’
Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
Blue skies or snowin’ we’re goin’
Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown

Once a year we don’t rush the lap
Coolers on sleds, speakers in packs
Fiddle’s ringin’ off the granite and snow
Bass thumpin’ low where the spruces grow

Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown – skiers, splitters too
Lifties, dirtbags, even Ikon holders – yeah, there’s room for you
Beers, burritos, whatever you’ve found
Somebody’s grillin’ straight on a rock on the ground

Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
Blue skies or snowin’ we’re goin’
Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
Blue skies or snowin’ we’re goin’
Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown

Sun sinks slow past Sugarloaf’s spine
Freshies glowin’ in that last-light shine
Cuffs soaked through, toes numb, nobody cares
Laughin’ too loud in the thin cold air

Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown – till the sun goes down
Play it again, crank it up, the backcountry’s our town
“No tickets, no ropes,” someone yells it proud
Just friends and snow and that familiar sound

Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
Blue skies or snowin’ we’re goin’
Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
Blue skies or snowin’ we’re goin’
Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
Come to the Grizzly Gulch Getdown
