5/30 Kootenay Pass



I drove back from Fernie to Rossland today, so another opportunity to ski at Kootenay Pass. I had to pick Isabelle up from dance so time was limited. I had an hour to hike up as far as I could. So I chose not to waste valuable minutes changing into my ski gear (except for my avi gear of course), I've seen lots of people at Red Mountain skiing in jeans so....

It's April and I had one of my best runs of the season, one of those runs that involve involuntary gasps of exhilaration. The conditions up high right now are just superb.

After thought: Jeans and powder do not go together! Powder sticks to jeans, don't do it, even if it means an extra two turns.
