Couldn't resist the temptation to get a closer look at the fresh snowfall. A good 6 inches fell in most places with about a foot above treeline. It was a mellow day out with the family, but got a few sketchy, rocky first pow turns of the year....
The drive was beautiful and more exciting then the skiing...
In all the excitment of going skiing I spaced my ski poles. So I improvised and went old school...
It was awesome to be in winter again, if only for a few hours

Looks nice out there.
Flaged pups, but not people? You could get kilt out there. The brethren tourexans always shoot at blue deeralopes.

Very nice - glad you got out.
