June 14, 2004, Summit at Snoqualmie, Summit West

Allright now, you probably thinking don't I have anything better to do?  Just like most of us, I to have a job that I go to.  However I must get my daily set of turns in, no matter how silly or dumb it may seem.  Since this is the most easily accesable snow patch that I can find, I'm gonna get my turns for the day, no matter how small the patch is.  Not that I'd do this everyday, on most days I at least make an effort to get some descent vertical in.  This patch happens to be right next the Pacific Crest Lift at Summit West.  It was long enough to make 15 turns, tight turns for that matter.  Yes, practicing tight turns has saved me from hitting a couple of trees as well.  For most people the skiing at the Summit at Snoqualmie and surrounding areas has ended, not for me.  I'll keep it up until July, then I can rest.  Might as well take advantage of any snow on the ground there is.  AAAhhhh, there's no other sport like skiing!
