"Leaving Vancouver? What about skiing?"
How many times did I hear that...
Well, on vacation, back in Vancouver, and of course, I get spoiled once again.
The season in BC (or seemingly all over western NA) started off pretty shitty to say the least... but obviously with my arrival, the snow came, and there was fun to be had. With a week off with the boys, and all other plans down the shitter, we decided to head north (as per usual). Stability/Conditions/Weather were all concerns, but in the end, we were probably the luckiest group skiing around that area all season. Stability was as good as it was going to get considering the season thus far, conditions and weather were... good to say the least.
After a pretty last minute decision, and some quick packing, we were on the road. Parking, 6.5 hours of hiking in, and a good nights rest later, we woke up to this... Oh so worth it.

Obviously with major concerns pretty much every day, there was a whole lot of pit digging going on... The first two of many...

With the green light, some of the boys were ready to drop in.

The 'clouds' rolled in... I tried to get artsy... the result.

Then the clouds left, and we were back at sending it. Spoiled, I know.

Our first full 'hard' day of skiing... Rough life indeed... the boys enjoying some sun.
