People were skiing down Seattle streets this weekend (VIDEOS)

February 13 was a day to remember for several Seattleites as they geared up their skis and boards and headed out to none other than the Seattle Streets.

Instead of hitting up Steven’s Pass on Saturday, a few people had the great idea of skiing the city.

Skiier Mitch Pittman documented his journey on Instagram, showing off his runs at Pike Place Market, Queen Anne Avenue, Gas Works Park, 60th Street, Discovery Park, and Dravus Street.

According to Pittman’s Instagram page, he managed to cover over 1,000 feet of vert, as “the skiing wasn’t half bad.”
