Powder Daze


I'm a sucker for fresh powder.  There's something about that feeling that you get on a powder day.  The adrenaline rush, the burning quads. When the snow is sooo light and fluffy that you can literally float on top of the snow and even if you eat it, its like falling into a bed of pillows.  These big snows are the reason that I ski.

Gotta love the freshies.
