Rockies Visit with some best friends.

We had a wonderful holiday in Canmore visiting some of our good friends. Luckily, conditions lined up great for skiing and we were able to enjoy some nice powder skiing.
Rob, Rich and I ventured to a not so hidden but still hidden gem...

This is/was my local ski area, logged a lot of days here!
As is almost always, it gave us a great descent right to valley bottom in boot top blower powder.

Marc, Chris and I headed up to a peak in the Bow Summit area to climb and ski a nice line from its near summit. Although the main line was wind schnarbed, we got a nice consolation in a nearby powder run in a nice couloir.

The boys are stoked!

Consolation.




Summits!

Jason and I ventured to near the summit of Vermillion Peak and skied a nice 400m run on its N aspect. Very nice and remote feeling.
