BRISTOL MOUNTAIN, NY — Simply a great ski day. My cousin and I headed to Bristol at around 4:00 p.m. The conditions were surprisingly excellent (it snowed the whole time we were there) and I skied very well. My skills seem to have made a breakthrough after readjusting a few small things (keep my feet closer together, keep my upper body pointing downhill, let the skis' sidecuts do the work). The results of these small changes have been awesome. My short turns are sharper than ever, and I can attack steeper trails without "coming apart" at higher speeds.

Great Ski Day

Stowe!
STOWE, VT — This ski day was a perfect contrast to my last ski days in Vermont two weeks ago. The weather was stormy, blustery and relatively warm. Not a trail we skied was freshly groomed. Instead, we skied small to medium-sized powder bumps the entire day, which made the skiing excellent.

Boring, Again
BRISTOL MOUNTAIN, NY — Boring and no fun; that's about it. I've got nothing else to say.
