This is the North Bowl yesterday - My 198th ski day of the season! |
It's early June and the skiing is still great on Pyramid, and these days I take the dogs with me every time I go. The snow has finished with the freeze/thaw melt cycle. and is solid enough for the doggies not to punch through. Yet there is still enough snow for long runs and the surface is perfectly soft. These days the view from the top is down to the green of early summer, and the wildflowers are all blooming by the trail as you hike up to the snow.
Yesterday after I took the dogs skiing I went kayaking with Nora, Stuey and cousin Leo. We kayaked around the south end of Near Island to the Dog Bay harbor and checked out the sea lions. They have their own dock there and it was a mass of sleeping, wiggling sea lions. They perked up a bit when we got close and were making all sorts of grunting sounds. The animals are HUGE and it was very disconcerting when they started to inspect us. We promptly turned around before we got too close!

The bottom of the jibber is totally done - but I'm still skiing to the clump of spruce trees above the creek crossing |
