Wednesday 4th February - Back to full strength












Denis takes some air!
Peter & Gayle


I'm amazed that I have recovered enough to ski today, but I feel great. Spoke to Fiona O'Brien this morning who said that she was unwell on Tuesday with the virus and that Michael now has it as well. Hopefully they will recover quickly.
Hugh McDowell gave me a lift to the hill where we met up with Brian, Peter and Denis. An adventurous days skiing, groomers mixed with off piste. The weather has gone warm again at just -2 degrees, the forecast is for it to get even warmer.
On Monday Brian ended up having to share a car to Rossland when his flight from Calgary flew over Castlegar, decided it was too cloudy, and so returned to Calgary. This happens a lot with Castlegar airport!
On our last run of the day we met up with Gayle and Peter who arrived in the early hours having driven fom Calgary........their flight on Tuesday was also cancelled!



Paul aplies the brakes
