That’s the grey and snowy I’ve come to know and love.

A Rare Sunny One
Apex is usually known for lots of sun, and less snow. Well, this year it’s been anything but true.
Today is one oddball day this season. Blue skies. Fresh snow is sort of normal these days, but clear skies are definitely not.
I have no idea what this is about. all I can tell you is that I saw her, and I had to have her…picture. It wasn’t until I downloaded the pics that I even noticed the funny hat.
After noon I went for a little tour out back.
Canadian was doing some high altitude flight school stuff, but that wasn’t what I was out looking for.
There was a solid class 3 slide a couple of days ago, so I wanted to go check it. I’m standing above a 2 meter crown, and it ran across for about 600m, ripping right to ground. I guess that was the early December dump waking up again. Things to ponder…
Oh well, let’s just have a sausage party instead.
The Biggest 10cm You’ve Ever Seen
Pretty tough to carve in this stuff…
Yeah, that’s the champagne right there. These kids don’t have a ton of powder experience, but what do you expect. Noa (below) is only 7.
Tam is a natural though.
Kayley too.
Oh, I drew the Head Coach’s daughter in my group. I guess I’d better shape up, maybe get a haircut.
But if I do that Marcus won’t respect me. What to do, what to do…
Peter doesn’t care. He’ll just ski around like a gorilla.
Besides, Tomas can be the clean cut one. So we can coach like “Good Cop, Bald Cop” or something.
Good thing Saturdays are only half days. I get the afternoon to do stuff like this…
I’ve come up with a new slogan for Apex, “The biggest 10cm you’ve ever seen!”
