Heaven


OK as skiers we all love dry powder snow. I am at Silverstar in BC. I have been here 2 other times (OK I live a charmed life) and it still amazes me every time. We arrived here Sunday for some skiing in the arvo on fresh set trails. It was perfect...sunshine and no wind and minus 2. Then since Sunday nite it hasnt really stopped snowing. 25cms approx has fallen in the last 24hrs which makes the place look like a skiers fairytale. As a nordic skier it is a dream to be here as ski tracks that the best national teams in the world come here and and train on.
We are looking at doing a race here on Wednesday nite..... new experience skiing in the dark under lights and then a Loppet on Saturday. Should be a blast and a bit of pain included.
The place we have rented to stay in is pimping to say the least and the team truck is awesome aswell. Its a brand new ford explorer with all the bells and whistles.....very nice.
