I had a great time blasting around the resort. Then snow was excellent for this time of the year. {sept}
Spent a lot of time in Captain's bowl inventing different ways to get down.
I am sure I have improved my technique over these hols. as each day i seem to be going faster and more confidently.

Had a great day following my daughter around and down the Arcadia chutes. I didn't do this too well, but have been practicing lots of short turns and getting a kick out of the tails of my crossmaxes, trying to ski around the pole plant with a more exaggerated up and down movement. It works for me.

I am sure i am addicted to all this white stuff!

I love the run down to the bottom of the Whitestar chair closest to the lodge.
This is nice and long and straight and is good for getting you going with some rhythm {however you spell that}

What is great is the huge area available off piste with no trees.
Care must be taken though, with no marking of the cliff off piste to the north of the Whitestar. {maybe i could have skied off there when going down casually one day}

As Arnie said: 'I'll be back'
{Hopefully in 2005}
