Wrapping up Another Ski Season

Skiing is what we do out here as if you haven't noticed.  This was ski season #11 and it ended Saturday afternoon as the skis were being returned to the waxroom.  Coaching is over for the season, but we still ski.

On Saturday, I hit my yearly goal of 100 days on skis.  I like having this goal as it does help get me out the door at times.  The other big reason is I love having a "real" full-time job and I still get in 100 days on the boards sliding around on snow.

Day 100 which wrapped up the ski coaching season . . . now I can just ski with "the girls" & Christian no other commitments.

The tundra snow is already melting/evaporating fast which is normal.  The drifts we ski on will be around for a but yet.  I would love to get in over 125 days but 110 may be a more realistic goal.

One of the many goof-balls we get to ski with!

Sikulik, a long time skier, will be graduating this year and heading to college.  It has been a treat working with him over the years.
