Was gonna shine off skiing today but last night realized that I'd left my boots in the kid's ski school area. Since they are prone to tossing stuff that's left out, I rallied and got to NS by a bit after 8 (my boots were still where I'd left then, unscathed). Meandered up to mid-mountain and was skiing by 8:40ish. Decided to just bang out a few laps off of Zephyr chair. Started out with "Northern Lights"/"Christmas Tree", then hit "Sodegren's", "The Gully", "The Stash", "Hoot Owl". On my next ride up I connected with Chris Anderson and told him my deal (just skiing 10 laps off of Zephyr). We skied "Pioneer", then "The Face", then "Boondocks", "Flying Squirrel", and back for another "Boondocks" banger (the snow was pretty damn bueno over there). Worked on carving and killing the wee bit 'o A-Framing I seem to be suffering. Talked about skis and boots, too (big surprise). Called it a day after that and waxed the skis before leaving. Solid morning of schuss fo' sure.
