31 centimeters is a lot of snow. when you've had the early season that we've had, it is close to miraculous. we got to the mountain early and it took a long time for them to get the lift open. it's a good sign when they are late getting things open, i t means that there is a lot of snow to move around.

after the first 45 seconds i knew it was going to be great. it was light, deep and i was with friends. i looked back to see sansalone with a look of amazement on his snow covered face. it was one of those first runs that stays in your head, that makes you get up a little earlier the next time. it restores faith in your mountain, the season, winter, everything. it's the reason we live here.

we lost sani and the skids after a run and TJ, HK and I went towards crystal ridge chair which had just opened. along the way there is a tight little chute called rookie and me. early season it is treacherous because it has some rocks in the middle and the drop into it is all exposed. it's too early to do it but we kinda weasled our way in after the drop and did the bottom half of it. it was really good.

the day was good, i could go on and on but i won't. we were down early in order to conserve our legs for tomorrow. the forecast is calling for "more than 50cms" by tomorrow afternoon...

i'm going to pick up a drum kit. roth and i bought ourselves a christmas present.
