Today was one of those days that couldn't have gone any better.  Light, stable snow.  Bluebird skies.  New, cool people.  Amazing mountain light.  It was all there for the taking.

I started the day by touring part way up Herman, and skiing the Enchanted Forest into Bagley Basin with 3 others.  The snow was fast, sloughy and fun.  Had to play "dodge the death cookie" down lower, but it was all good.  Two laps from The Grotto (pic below), another down to Iceberg Lake, and a final back up and over lower Herman to the car. 

Hard to beat bluebird Baker.  Happy holidays everyone.

Hope you were thinking of me sitting at my desk...

LUCKY!!!!! Every day off is a good day off!

Nice!  Way to get the goods  :D

Rode half of herman today, pretty damn stoked!!! just hope we get some snow soon!
