Feb 6 - Municipal Creek

Today we skied  up through fog from the 4800 to the 6200 foot level. Then we broke through into sunshine, and climbing over the height of land could see Brent mountain shining in the distance, while the Okanagan Valley below was shrouded in heavy cloud.

Feb 3 - Southern Comfort

Heading south on our "Southern Comfort" trail we ran into heavy fog, and trees massively loaded down with hoar frost.

guy's ski repair

Today was a test of our ability to cope. Guy duVent's 3 pin cable binding broke apart due to metal fatigue. Duct tape repairs, even reinforced with electrical tape lasted about 20 minutes each time. When reinforced with  vinyl flagging tape, it lasted the rest of the way back.

Ski Carmi

7 of us enjoyed brilliant sunshine, perfect powder, and "views forever", on a loop north starting at k 11 on the Carmi Road.
