Had a good day out on Sunday. Started in the fog, climbed into the sun and ended back in the fog. Not many turns were had but a very good day.

Rock solid on the down Al. Beautiful country, I see why you like it. I hope you get to post some more photos this season. Btw, your wife did a real nice job getting that downhill shot. Maybe she can post some tips sometime?

That's Mount Susitna aka Sleeping Lady. There are no roads over that way so I've never been there.

Thanks fish, the wife usually isn't that good with the pics, but she's getting better.

It is a skiers paradise, there's everything from groomed cc with lighted trails to extreme stuff that I'll never do, there's even a working ski jumping facility. That's all within a few miles from my house. There have been years I never drove more than three miles to ski.
