Well I finally got some ski images posted. As I have said in some previous posts, it was a great week of skiing. Schweitzer got 20+ inches of snow last week, and I got 3 days of fresh tracks.

Tuesday

I snowboarded on Tuesday. It was a great day. There was 10 inches of new snow. Doug and I went stayed on the front side all day. The highlights were the KMAC and Jack’s Dream on the South Face and Headwall off the quad.

Wednesday

We got a late start today. It started out clear, but by 11am it started snowing. By the end of the day we got about 4 inches of snow. We met Doug’s friend, Tom for the first few runs. We then went to the back side and found great powder left in the trees off chair six.

Friday

This was the big day. Another 10 inches of snow today. Doug and I started the morning on chair 4 to stay away from the crowds and fog/wind up top. We got many, many powder runs in. We skiied from 9am till 4, all over the mountain. On powder days, I tend to get beard build up. By lunch I had a huge ice encrusted beard which elicited lots of comments from folks in the lodge. Here is a picture from later in the day w/ not as much build up.

Saturday and Sunday

Garrett came out for the weekend. We had 2 nice days of skiing. I boarded on Sat and then tele-ied on Sat afternoon and Sunday. The snow was soft and we again went all of over the mountain, even out to the tow rope that opened in the area past Siberia. On Sunday, we were also joined by 2 of Doug’s friends from Sandpoint, Rich and Dave on Sunday.
