Another great day skiing in the sun ! I was really surprised as to how good the snow was. Especially in the Symphony and Harmony zones.

The groomed runs were hard packed, but smooth and lots of fun on my carving skis. Off piste in the alpine was a lot better than anticipated, with plenty of pockets of soft snow to be found. I managed to get quite a few nice turns around Piccolo and Bagel Bowl.

It was another cold day, luckily the winds were low (mostly). I definitely came close to getting frostbite again. In the sun, it felt warm, but once you got moving, the wind chill certainly reminded you of how cold it was.

Tonight there is some stand-up comedy at Dusty’s, and I am looking forward to sinking a few beverages and having a bit of a laugh.
