Pete's catching up with the grey in the beard
Pete receiving B-day wishes from the Wise Guy ( much better than last year - avoid Mexican B-day traditions that involve eating cake with your hands behind you back)
Snow took its time to show up this year and the pack was still below average. But the Valhalla Mountains provided plenty of Pow. When we arrived there was over a meter at the lodge – enough for fun skiing. Good thing tree skiing at VMT is fine and plentiful as the alpine slopes were somewhat wind affected.

Pete looks concerned - where is the second ski?
Must have missed that line!

More trees over there!

The promised snow arrived on the last day of our week – about 30 cm fresh and continued falling all day. More tree skiing!
The ski-out was good fun, thanks to tracks of a couple of snowmobiles and some skiers that compacted the 50 cm of fresh that had accumulated (and thanks to hooking up with the cat in the flat sections).
I’m sure we parked the cars somewhere around here!?
