Thanks for your camera Bonnie!

Huzzah! More pictures for you folks back home. Bonnie allowed me to carry her camera around the ski hill yesterday - a VERY risky proposal. You'll be happy to know the camera even survived!

In any case, I took a bunch of pictures. The weather wasn't so great (surprise, surprise for sunshine), but some of these are nice anyway. Let's get started!

This is my "Everest". I hate this run, yet i go down it all the time. I usually end up in a heap somewhere near the bottom and have to walk back up. Grrr...one day "Headwall"..1 day. In other news, there's a lot of snow in this picture!

This from about 1/2way down the "noob lift". That's the ski base down there, and the gondola going off in the distance. Banff is nowhere to be seen.

Goat's Eye Mountain - the tallest area of the ski hill. 9200ft lift station.

Lookout Mountain. This is the one with the cross-border ski lift. IN fact, you can see it faintly on the right

From the top of a 3rd mountain, Mt Standish. Weather looking....not so good. This is also looking in to British Columbia.

Well Mom, you asked what "Delirium Dive" is...it's in this photo. It's the bowl-like area on the right that is somewhat obscured by the clouds. I wont' tell you when i start doing it :p

I just think this is pretty. Sometimes it's tough to focus on skiing when your scenery looks like this.

So, when can I expect everyone for a ski trip?
