I haven’t really written anything with pictures in a long while. I don’t know. It just got redundant after a while. It’s already been about two years since I started this blog (almost 2)
So here I go -
Well, it did snow all day last Friday, but snow did not accumulate as much as I expected. (I always want more than I can chew!) I was so tired but we woke up early and took the gondola to explore around. We found the secret stash we always go when it snows like that, and even though we didn’t get first chair we found a couple of spots where the snow was virgin ;D
Early bird gets the secret stash ;D

Do you see the lines? I drew those ;D

First run - wait, second run?

It was a bit cloudy in the morning but it cleared up soon – but powder disappeared when the sun came up because temperature started rising, and did I mention the crazy local skiers who find every inch of fresh powder? Well, it seems they are not aware of our stash. Lucky us! We usually take the gondola about 2~3 times max, but I think that day we rode it about 6 or 7 times. I was about to faint when we went home. My hands were shaking. I was so done -_-

Hello sunshine!

Not a soul sane here. Especially me. I look like a crazy woman on a sunny day D: ?

After hiking up that spot about 5 times, my heart and lungs were about to explode. I need to do more cardio >_<

For some reason this hill doesn’t look that steep, but actually this is more of a cliff than a hill -_- I was crying “UMMAAAAAH” all the way down until I reached a safe angle. According to Hong Flip and TK, this spot was clean powder. After the skiers raped this place, it looked like this:

they look like brothers -_-

Taking a sweet break. Where is my tea?
