Skiing and shoeing

Joani and I had a great day skiing. It is warming up here (10 above when we started), so the already great snow was even better. We got in over 20k vertical feet for the first time this season.

I when snow shoeing after skiing. Once I started hiking up the mountain I decided to carry the snow shoes and stick with my boots. That worked fine given the hard packed snow. The hike turned out to be a very challenging 2.5 hours. I started off with normal ski wear, but by half way up I was hatless, coatless and gloveless. Fun!
