Morning in the mountains

This is a real-time "mountain cam" shot of the top of one of my favorite runs. I can hardly wait to get out there!!! I love skiing on the freshly groomed stuff.

Yesterday's skiing was good. There hasn't been much recent snowfall so not much powder, but the packed powder at the top of the mountain is light and soft and very easy to ski. I took it easy on the first day, didn't do as many runs as I could have, but my legs are thanking me for it. (After forking over for lift tickets, one has to constantly remind oneself that the quality of skiing is more important than quantity.)

Off to make breakfast and wake up the "boys." I'll have some of our own pics to share tomorrow.

  3. A newly groomed slope is a thing of beauty to a not great skier like me.
    Enjoy your vacation.

  5. A scenery like this is beautiful to look at, but actually having to live surrounded by it several months every year, is not so beautiful.

  6. I wish I was there!

    Of course, I would not be skiing. So, I would be in charge of filling the flasks, stoking the fire at the lodge, stimulating the economy in the shops, and keeping the restaurants in business.

    Tough work, but somebody's got to do it!

  7. So beautiful! I feel like if the weather is going to be cold then there might as well be gorgeous snowscapes to go along with it! It looks like you're having a grand time! Enjoy your day!

  10. You're terrifying me. Can't you just go for a walk for example, then return to the chalet for a grog?
