Finally found time to begin my 2010 season at Red Mountain blog :-)


Since arriving on the 3rd January its been pretty hectic. The first week I arrived I comleted a one week ski improvement course with CSQ - Wendy MacIntyre was our instructor who was excellent. Then followed my birthday, Carnival weekend in Rossland (when the Olympic torch passed through). Then the following week was Burns night on the 25th and Australia day on the 26th. Hope you enjoy the photos............

Trip to Northport

One of the the highlights of the CSQ week is the Tuesday night trip over the boarder into the States to visit Northport in Wahington State. Following a meal at the Whitebird restaurant, we then go on to ''Kuk's Bowling and Disco''. This place has to be experienced to believe.

Saturday 21st February

Had a lazy days skiing with Dave, Gayle, Judy and Peter. Started at 11.00 am and finished at 2.15 pm. Dave had not been on downhill skis for years and was an experienced telemarker who prefered back country skiing. Having done a few groomers we headed for a few off piste runs. Dave proved himself to be an excellent downhill skier (apart from a couple of falls, which resulted in a tear in both his ski pants and his thermals).
