Skiing in the New Year

 


Yesterday I went skiing with Stuey - well sort of - he went skiing with his friend and I was up there too.  At times we intersected and at times we skied together. We also ran into Uncle Dicky.

Earlier in the week while it poured rain in town it snowed high up on the mountain.  We have a lot of new snow since I went skiing with Nora over the weekend.  Like more than a foot of heavy, dense corned up snow above 1500 feet and even more above that.  The mountain has been transformed.  It is back to what it was like in early December and you can now ski down to the bottom of the jibber bowl.

But down below it is still all brown.  The brown down below contrasts sharply with the white, white snow. All the mountain tops are white islands in a sea of brown.  It certainly is nice to have some decent snow again.
