First Ski Trip Of 2010 - Jan 12th, 2010 3:05pm |
|
The last thing I need to post on to catch up the poor souls I subject to this site is my latest ski trip to Sunrise.Looking back I'm amazed and saddened that I only squeezed in a single ski trip last year. For something I love so much I spend surprisingly little time doing it -- I'm blaming Canada.
Though this trip was originally scheduled to have 132 people come with and all stay in Alek's cabin only 3 of us made it in the end. Vince, Alek and myself... well ok - Alek's family was up there as well but they hung out in town while we goofed off on the slopes. Really I can't say enough about Alek on this trip. He provided an awesome place for us to stay, food in the morning/night, and great company on the slopes. I definitely owe him one.
Thats not to leave out Vince - he is great to ski with. Probably the only person I know who skis better than I do. He'll ski any run and can go all day without needing to eat or go to the bathroom. An invaluable skill when you can only be on the slopes from 9am-4pm. The mountain also cooperated giving us great squeaky dry snow and a sunny albeit cool day.
Tried to take a couple videos on this trip but they turned out really craptacular. Turns out that its downright impossible to ski well and hold a video camera. I remember my dad doing that as a kid, he is a talented SOB. Enjoy the pics and hopefully I'll see some of you out there this weekend on trip #2.
