First day of the season

Sunshine, 30 cm of fresh powder, no wind, -10C, a snowcat filled with ripping skiers and boarders - a perfect day.

Road Building

Tyler and I have been out in the Wildhorse for the last couple of days getting the snowcat skiing roads into shape for this winter. We hauled up 160 hay bales into the mountains to fill in nasty traverses, gullies and other trouble spots - I feel a bit like a farmer right now. But the road building is going much better and the crop is looking good. It snowed 20 cm today. Another 30cm is forecasted for the rest of the week - that should put us into perfect skiing territory.
