Just bought a GoPro session, and I'm still working out the bugs and editing. I thought I was turning it off, and it wasn't recording, but I ran out of juice quick. GoPro's "Quick" is a pretty lame editing tool, and it forces a crappy song on you. Anyway... Had a stellar run where I found a seriously steep line of fresh deep pow (the mountain was pretty skied out from the weekend and had sub-pow crust), but my camera was out of battery. I say a stellar line; it would've made a good clip because 10 fast, great turns in I tucked a ski, head plated, and the took a long slide on my back trying to regain. Whoo Hoo!

There's enough snow for a few more weeks of skiing at Bluewood (and xc skiing in Blue Mountains), but it's raining today.

Yeah, seems to be the cycle this season: Great dumping of lite snow followed by rain. We're getting soaked in rain up at Snoqualamie now. Would be nice to get some sunny spring skiing conditions.
