Yesterday I went skate skiing in the alpine for the first time all year. It was pretty exhilarating! Only issue was that the light was flat and I had a hard time seeing the snow 'topography'. So I'd unexpectedly encounter big holes, drifts, small cornices etc. Even more exhilarating! But it meant that I had to temper the speed quite a bit when I was in terrain I did not know very well. From skate skiing up there in years past I actually know where the hazards generally set up year after year.
Anyway, it was flat light and not very good for photography either. But the clouds were pretty cool. And the grey skies set a sombre mood that I liked. Patrick
