Today was another stunning day at Silverstar, Canada. The blue sky peeped through the drifting snow clouds early this morning. Rugged up in our ski gear with not an ounce of flesh showing we skied down to the chairlift. As we rose through the mist of the valley to the top of the mountain the view out to the Rocky Mountains and the valleys off in the distance revealed itself.
The beauty here is breathtaking, a white landscape every way you turn with tall snow covered fir trees making it look like a fairyland including a very special unicorn....
The groomed slopes are a joy to ride, with very few skiers or snowboarders around us. Roger and I headed off on a forest trail which was saw me fall a few times on a soft feathery bed of powder snow as the bends were a bit tricky... and with the speed I would rather the snow than the tree!
With New Years Eve upon us (I know in Austr alia and England you are already in the year 2010! Happy New Year to you!) my mind turns to appreciation for the year that has been and also to what is to unfold.
I will touch base again tomorrow!
