October pow turns

Post by Idris »

I crawled out of bed this morning, head a little fuzzy from laying up skis with Freelader and Susie rang me to say it was a Bluebird pow day??? It's October and I can barely see 50m out of the window for fog

Anyway the webcam's agreed with Susie so off to the lift

looking up at the hills on the drve in

looking a bit closer - yes there is snow up there

Image

After a careful walk down the ridge in fresh snow I dropped in. Initial turn hit hard but is got nice quick

Image

Then it got steep with big holes!

Image

Susie dropping in, leaving the mountaineers way behind

Image

A little lower down Susie making some nice turns ;)

Image

Out onto the untouched

Image

What a nice place for a Sunday stroll

Image

Susie matching my turns down the mellow stuff

Image

End of the line, time to take a breather before heading back up

Image

Susie hard at work messaging the office on a sunday

With this photo of me paying the piper ;)
