I got the e-mail inviting me to create content for "Powder Project"....

This looks like a REALLY bad idea, I'm curious what others think. A few thoughts that jump to mind.
1-Secret in-bound spots are that... secret. It sucks to have your local "Crag-X" blown up and see other people. Snow, unlike rock, gets tracked out....
2-Avalanches - Hey kids, here is where this sick gnar is, with GPS coordinates! I saw the avalanche "warning symbol" feature. Personally this does not look like the step forward for the current state of backcountry skiing.

What do you think?

It seems that everyone agrees. I would say ME TOO!
