We spent Sunday skiing with Ron and Sid near Apex Resort. Ron knows the area really well and was tour guide for us throughout the day. We made a few turns but mainly just wanted to connect some of the dots from our previous visits to Apex. The snow pack is still marginal so it's just as well that we were out for a tour.
It was a seriously cold day. I don't think it got any warmer than -19C. Okay Pat you're laughing at us. I guess three years in the Okanagan has thinned my blood.
We saw loads of moose tracks, enjoyed a bit of sun, and basically just kept moving to stay warm!
Ron shows us his shortcut
well, -19 is respectable, but i think the day at Belvidere (what was it -30) is the coldest I have managed to ski...or at least get Anke out the door to go skiing!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you guys need touring skis for that sort of day. Not those beefy powder skis, skinning on flat ground is way too much work!
We still talk about that day at Belvedere! Have you been back there? But yeah it would have been a good day for Karhu XCD's or something.
