1st Day of Ski Season 07-08!!!

11-11-07

Mt Ellen, Sugarbush VT

A little hike to get to snow,


then skinning was possible.



Good to be on the skin track again.


Good natural snow up higher, untracked except for the foot tracks of the snowmaker checking the guns.


Nice frozen base with super light recrystallized powder.

Other places it was mounds of cornflake and scale like hoar frost.


Good turns were had.




A little digi cam video of literally my first turns 07-08.



Better than expected skiing for the 1st day out!
