Evenings up Behind Cope Mountain

Nora empties her boots after crossing the river on way home

 Both Friday and Sunday evenings Nora and I took the dogs and joined our friends Brent and Vonn for evening skis up behind Bells Flats.  It's a long hike and climb, and there is a river to cross.  But once you get up there the skiing is excellent and the view stunning.  And then on the way home you get to ski 2 miles back towards the car in one long, swooping run.  Up on top it is all snow and then at the bottom of the run full on summer and very green.
