Tired legs rejoicing

Skiing & Snowboarding

After the stunner yesterday at Cortina with yet another 40cm overnight followed by yet another bluebird, tired legs were unwilling to move much today but finally mustered enough energy to head out and find it was…quite good.

Temperatures have gotten a bit milder since yesterday with the top lift measuring -6C so the 20cm or so of snow that fell last night was slightly heavier than of late but only slightly and soon tired legs were again rejoicing in the joy of effortless turns in deep powder.

Also Some tip toeing needed around some tender wind loaded areas on south-east aspects but fairly stable below the tree line.

Still snowing so here’s to another great day tomorrow.
