Powder day at Purgatory

With totally coolness; my company allows Paid Time Off to ski on days that are remarkable. After receiving 2 to 3 feet of new snow in South West Durango Friday seemed to be the perfect day to take off!

Tyler decided to venture in the deep powder; Brianna, she decided to pass up the opportunity for a later date.

The skiing was unbelievable and presented new challenges!

Sunday in the Back Country

Today, a buddy took me under his wing to show me the basics of back country skiing.

Thanks again Walker!!

Let me provide a summary for those of you not familiar with back country skiing. At least this has been my organic definition as I am new to the sport!!

Back Country Skiing: Skiing without paying any money to ski, skiing without seeing another human except for your buddies, being outdoors in the blissful and peaceful wilderness, and finally, skiing the "white gold" deep powder. Oh did I also mention getting sun burned, so you also can work on your tan!

Enjoy the Video.
