Making the most of it

With the snow sticking around you'd be a fool not to be outside enjoying it at every opportunity so I vowed to get out and ski the local trails everyday while it's here. Yesterday we were blessed with sunshine.

On the far side of the reservoir a lot of the trails were untouched and the deep powder was a joy to ski through.

Lunch stop atop a perfect log chair. Hot blueberry toddy and even more gingerbread kept my fuel tank topped up.

A dead body was found in this valley amongst suspicious circumstances many years ago. I was hoping I wasn't going to be added to the tally when I skied down the path that runs along the edge of the copse of fir trees in the middle of the picture.
