Too Much of a Good Thing

Jason and I were super excited to go skiing yesterday. We just knew with 4 feet of new snow, the skiing would be incredible. Um, actually it was really hard. That's a lot of snow to get bogged down in, and my legs were screaming right away. We saw tons of snowboarders get covered under mounds of snow as they tried to land jumps. We ran into some friends that said they had to help free a skier and a snowboarder. The snowboarder was buried so deep they couldn't get him, but called for help. The mountain had to bring the bobcat dozer and dig him out! So, yeah, there's tons of powder up there. Jason and I are still in awe of the shear amounts of snow...we're just a couple of wide-eyed Texans for sure.

What great pictures - looks like the sunshine hit after the storm went away. Beautiful for those of us just looking and not living in it.
