a trip with snoboy

[Dru]

since there is no ice and no local snow i saved my pennies and then drove over to rossland in search of fluffy kootenay champagne powpow.

 

snoboy, snogrrl and snocat welcomed me, fed me dinner, organized party and let me sleep in the attic

 

snoboy was on patrol on fri so snogrrl and some friends took me lift skiing on red

 

id love to say that i hucked huge air and threw down a mute 180 into a tailgrab but my accomplishments were limited to skiiing down the green runs without falling over

 

yesterday snoboy and i went for a tour

we skiied thru a bunch of trees, some were quite close together

and over several mountains

snoboy did 95% of the trailbreaking through fluffy powpow

i followed along in his tracks

after digging some pits and stuff and seeing scary facet layers and christmas crusts

we skiied out to the groomed run at sundown

and i made several glorious yardsale wipeouts late in the day

but we survived

 

then we went to a new years party and drank champagne and played a party game and went extreme bobsledding!

 

 

rossland is cool

 

yay for snoboy and snogrrl
