ski: avoriaz


Skiing tires you out, but it's so much fun. Another double ski weekend, we headed to Avoriaz with friends for fun in the snow. The girls took lessons while the big kids adventured higher up. It was gusty (gale force winds as the forecast said), major drifts across the pistes, heavier snow and low clouds mixed with little moments of sunshine. But that's not complaining- we had a fun day skiing. I really like that each time presents new challenges in different snow and conditions.  


After the morning skiing together- the guys took on the Swiss Wall.



We split for our final runs after a late lunch. Derek and I ascended for a great long run in a rare bit of clear sky and finished down at the parking lot. Another great ski day, and headed home to top it off with homemade pot pie!
