A group of us ventured off to Bachelor for the weekend. We had a great time in the backcounty. The mountain didn't have any new snow so we decided to earn the turns. I wish I could spell the mountain that we climbed, but I can't. oh well. It was a short boot pack - only about 1 mile and it lead to a great bowl. I had a good time on that side, but realized that I am in dire need of some fat skies. The Cascade "powder" is a lot thicker than my old school thin boards have a chance of floating in. Good thing there are a few demo days coming up :) On Sunday I went and checked out the Bachelor Nordic Center because I have heard that it is incredible. I am happy to report that is in fact incredible! It was no Devil's Thumb though and it left me missing the Hammers. I thought of Sharon's perfect form as I glided along. It helped me maintain my composure :)
Off to Portland for the next few days. Rain in the forcast so hopefully that means more snow for the mountain - just in time for the weekend!
