Winter makes a comeback….

19/03/2013 by mike

Well it was on the cards I suppose, the birds were in a feeding frenzy last week and it was warm and sunny most days, the snow was disappearing, but then low and behold a change in the temperature and its been snowing on and off since Saturday.

The weekend was quite interesting as we got up at some mad time and made it to the ski slope by 7am, we were helping to lay out the course for the Seniors and Masters Ski competition, it was so cold both mornings but at least on Sunday the sun came out after a -15c start. For me it proved to be interesting as I ended up being a gate judge for the slalom races which is pretty good as I know very little about ski ing but it was not that difficult and it is good to do things for the people who look after us at Paseky all winter.

Yesterday was pretty quiet, we had a bit of a play on the slope, Maria was teaching in the morning, then today we went up into the mountains to just under Chleb and had a couple of hours of freeriding in virgin snow, it was wicked, hardly anyone up there because of the wind and snow but we had clean lines every run, beats working thats for sure…Off up there again tomorrow to see how the Rossignol guys are getting on with their Spring session.
