As usual with this group the Valdez trip was a bust. Clouds and wind kept us from skiing, other then a Saturday afternoon lap on Odyssey. I realized halfway through the trip that the only times I’ve been in Valdez when the sun wasn’t shinning were with Mania and Wilson, and so figured that I was pretty much screwed. Anyway, we raced back to the western Chugach for some sun shine and powder. I Spent the day skiing Corn Biscuit (pictured above) with Mania and Wilson; we found that typically Alaskan 9″ of effortless skiing powder. Skinning around in a t-shirt, and with the sun now shinning until nine it’s hard contemplating that winter was only a few months ago. Oh well, as long as the skiing stays good we’ll be happy.
