Today was the first outing of the season with the CERN Ski Club. It's tough to believe this is our fifth season with the club. Starting in level 1.0 back in the winter of 2010, Derek and I thought it would be a great way to spend our Saturdays together...fast forward, we still ski in different groups every year. I haven't caught up to him, but have climbed the ranks to level 3.5...I didn't even know there was a 4.0 until Derek got there this year. Lessons have been good for us both, and we look forward to the five weekend lessons and familiar faces every winter.
Today we skied Les Gets with spring-like temperatures until some afternoon fog rolled over the peaks. Despite the low snow base, and lots of exposed ground, we found some good runs, and sufficiently tired ourselves out. Maybe our friends and families can send some of the cold and snow from Chicago...you've got plenty to spare and we want it over here.
