Excellent use was made of the nice weather this week. After-work activities started on Monday with a quick ski-up to the first Pump on Mt Seymour. A ditch to ground level along the ski run (to help with construction of a new lift) showed that the snow cover is still a healthy 2-3 meters. Snow was still soft on the way down at sun-set – a rather pleasant ski out for May, and not the knee-twisting deep slushiness we encountered a week ago.
Wednesday we rinsed the dust of our whitewater boats with a quick run on the lower Seymour. First time in my kayak since October (not counting a couple of pool sessions). This must have been the longest dry time since I started paddling in 1996!
Thursday we aired our wings with a vigorous kiting/groundhandling session at Queen E park.
