80cm in the last 7 days!!! - Awesome 9 yr old skier girl.

Winter has been a bit odd here this year (apparently). Much warmer than normal, But it looks like the snow has finally started to catch up!

A few days earlier, sitting above the clouds at the top of a run... Very bizarre snowboarding down through a cloud!!! But what an amazing sight!




POWDER
With 80cm in the last 7 days and a bunch of powder that i have gotten to hit it has been fantastic!!!

A couple of days back on a short back country hike this is what it was like!




Then another 30cm over 2 days and another back country area to get some snow like this!!!

Waist deep!!! Pitty that it wasnt like that all over!


I have some video from that day but i dont know if i will get it up or not. See how my time goes and if i can be bothered. Might just save it for my heliboarding trip! :D (which is 11 days away!!! OMG)


Next week i have plans to get to Kicking Horse and Revelstoke which everybody raves about! So that should be awesome!


Park Update
I am getting much more comfortable on rails and boxes now and have started doing the rails you have to jump up on to, Not with great success but its a start and lots of fun! :)

I worked up the courage the other day to hit the line of "Large" kickers (jumps) at  Mt Norquay. Unfortunately i did not have my gopro with me.

But this is them

There is about a 10-12m gap to clear to make it to the landing.
I worked up the courage and just went for it :) 1st one went so smoothly i just kept going and did the 2nd and 3rd one too!!! :D Was such an adrenalin rush!






Having an awesome time over here and still trying to meet some new people. Just under a month until i am back Home in AUS.

In 1 hand i cant wait to get home and see all my family and friends again and in the other hand i dont want to leave here!!!

Awesome little skier girl! - 9 Years old!

Now today at Norquay, There was this awesome little girl, She was really cute and only 9. She did a FRONT FLIP off the first large jump (as pictured above with the medium jump just beside it)

She was a champ and this was the 2nd one she did, the first one she landed a bit cleaner. Most impressive thing i saw all day!
