an extra hour of skiing is never a bad thing
I got up today to ski teton pass w/ a friend early this morning before he headed back to Colorado. I would have completely forgotten about the falling back but as we were sitting in the summit parking lot waiting a suspiciously long time for the sun to come up, he reminded me that our early start was, really, a very early start.
I must say, I, for one, would much rather ski pow than sleep. We got three runs in - most of which involved knee to waist deep snow billowing at or above head-level. I think I set a personal record this morning with a full 4-5 seconds of powder induced "snow-blindness". Needless to say, tonight I will sleep well.
"Do not believe that he who seeks to comfort you lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words that sometimes do you good. His life has much difficulty and sadness and remains far behind yours. Were it otherwise he would never has been able to find those words." ~ Rilke
