SBR had to content himself with night skiing at Hidden Bump, which is always entertaining. Conditions were very good - lots of tracked up loose snow and very few people. The skiing was fun too, except when the 8 year kid straitlining the big hill launched off my rear twin tip, causing me to fall over in the middle of a high speed tele-turn. Never got up so fast in my life, roared down to bottom, stopped him in his tracks and gave him a grumpy old guy lecture on the perils of skiing too fast.
Comment of the evening, overheard from below as I sat in the dark on the chair:
Hoser on skis #1: "this powder is tough going, eh?"
Hoser on skis #2: "yeah, it really bogs you down."
They were snowplowing the edge of the run...
