My Boots Stink!

That's right. They smell bad. Real bad. Lucky for everyone involved we don't have to store our gear in our room.

With the lack of fresh snow we have been doing a lot of hiking this year. We got back on the trail again today. We did a route that we have been thinking about since the day we left last year, when we watched Dav hit it. We hiked up a one chute for about 45 minutes. The snow in that chute was mostly firm, as a result of wind and sluffing. We did however, have to blaze a bootpack. When got got to the top of that chute we were able to pop over into another chute that dumped out into the bottom of the Super C. You quickly forget just how long the runs are here. This chute was a pretty steep, 4 stop run. The snow was great. Some was turns were in about 4 inches of fresh and others were on steep, firm, sloughed out snow. Everyone with the posse made the hike today and we have linked up with some other skiers from Cali.

Tomorrow we are thinking about the Super C again. Nothing but sun in the forecast. Oh well, I guess we will just have to deal with it.
