Making ski turns through the snow

Fun turns this morning in the backcountry in northern Vermont.

Skiing in the backcountry

We hit the backcountry network at nearby Bolton Valley, Vermont, this morning to earn some turns. It was a lovely, windless, warm morning. We found 4 - 6 inches of fresh snow piled up from the last few days. Some sunny or windy spots were a little crusty or windpacked. But finding soft turns in shady areas was bliss. A great way to start the day.

Unfortunately we will have very balmy weather on Thursday and Friday. With some rain. We'll see what happens!
