New Years Eve Ski Day

We decided to brave the current conditions (basal facets and -20) for a day of skiing on the parkway. Off we went to Crowfoot Glades with the attitude of "checking it out". Once higher, away from the valley floor, both the travel and ski quality became reasonable and we enjoyed a few laps of nice powder turns up at tree line. After a cold start, the sky smiled a bit at us and the sun warmed our cheeks as we sipped tea and ate a few snacks around mid day....

Pretty decent turns all things considered..

Glory.

Nice to be out when its quiet in the hills...
