Wow! April!
So I just got back from a great trip with some good folks up at the Stanley Mitchell Hut. Our original intentions had been to open throttle over the Wapta from the Bow hut but that was thwarted by a gloomy weather forecast that was set to drop some snow down (more on that later!). Wow! The area around the hut is awsome to say the least. We enjoyed some pretty good wintery weather back there as we made our way from nice tree runs to a stellar morning/afternoon skiing up and down from the President Pass as well as the token skis off bootpack to the summit of the vice pres. Upon returning from the vice pres we found ourselves surrounded by the sign of winter goodness, huge flakes of light snow fell in mass all around us. We relaxed in the hut before we just couldnt take it anymore, out into the falling spectres we went to soak up more good turns in the treed slopes under the vice president which is a place best described as a private bow summit. Large grins entered our faces as we went up the second time to absorb the fading daylight and take in all of our surroundings. A great trip!
