Freedom of the Hills


Ahh - the freedom of the hills!!! It feels pretty good to back on skis. The legs are starting to get stronger and I think the preseason ski training is helping. They opened Main Chute at Alta for opening day! Its a real leg burner on the way up and down. I really like early season... the creativity of minimized terrain, the fast turns around unforeseen twigs... your eyes perked like your wellbeing depended on detecting any small inconsistency in the snow that could tell the tale of something lying beneath...and we get a few days to practice carving on hard snow before it goes away until the same time next year. Its absolutely amazing how much better the skiing is at Alta than everywhere else when we have this little snow. Here are few previously unseen photos from last year.
