May 27 Kootenay Pass


 Thanks Greg Cambourn for for asking how my project is going.  I guess I have been distracted with other activities, I have been training with the Red Mountain Academy athletes, riding my bike quite a bit and have been spending a lot of time with the kids.  But the skiing continues.  Today was day 20.  There is still about 2 meters at the Kootenay pass, based on checking out snow melt around the trees.  I left very early this morning, the whole adventure took about four hours.
This would have been a nice line, since I was on my snowboard I kept hiking and got a wider and longer one
In the shade the snow was hard as concrete which made for easy hiking

The end of my run, decent vertical on sun softened snow.
I lifted this photo off the Kootenay Pass web cam, that's me getting back into my car, check out the time, I had an early start
