...another ski... and the last day of 2013!
Katy and Trish stopped by and as we eventually got loaded in the truck and on the highway we had yet to decide where to go and what to do... Decided a no for Bragg so kept driving, did a quick stop at Nikiska but nope, we hoped for better snow and at last at Sawmills (I think, one before Chester) we parked and got skis ready. 1 min passed Trish's anticipated departure, right on schedule.
The ski out towards Chester in fresh snow was awesome, a little trouble with the wax and getting kick and glide at the same time, but a little extra work was not a big deal.
From Chester we went up, up and some more up. The trail then loops back down along a creek, well this before the flood. The creek was now a huge gap and trails mostly gone. We got do wipe out, ski a bit, hike a bit, and some more wiping out, and even a wet foot in the creek.
Great company so great fun! Quick lunch in Canmore before back to Calgary to ring in the new year.
Happy New Year!!
