These photos are all from Friday evening's ski with Nora. For the season it was my 199th day of skiing. Yesterday I got in my 200th day of the season. That's a lot of skiing! This year I started the ski season in October and got in 8 days on snow for the month. In November skied 17 days, and then after Thanksgiving in Arizona I skied on 152 straight days before the beginning of archaeology season in May. Yesterday I made it 200 for the season, and the snow is still great. It's not often that I get in over 200 ski days in a season. I think I have only done it once before.
Nora and went up Friday evening after she finished babysitting at around 6 PM. It was a hazy evening, but the snow was all corned up and good. Down below it is all now bright green. And the grass is even turning green and wildflowers blooming between the snow patches. I saw my first Pixie-eyed primrose (pink flower below) and snow bed marigold (white flower). A beautiful evening on snow!

And check out video below of Nora skiing the North Bowl face - it is much steeper than it looks!
