POW day at sunshine



Today is opening day at sunshine ski resort. On Tuesday they had 24cm of snow drop and because it was opening day nobody had touched it.

Jed and I were about the 6th person down Wolverine run, Jed biffed it and all I saw was a mushroom cloud of powder in the air. The people on the chair had a good laugh as did I when I fell over from laughing too hard :) We were waist high in powder on that run.... it was great. By the time we got back to the top for another run there must have been 20 tracks. Our timing was great.

It's kinda weird how I have been working on strengthening my hips for my running issues. Now my super load bearing cycling Quads were quivering today. I was kinda disgusted with myself, not being able to finish a run with out stopping 1/3 and 2/3 down. We didn't do a full day, both of us had the opinion that we did not need to kill ourselves on the first ski day.

What's that phrase... a bad day skiing beats any day in the city :)
