Mountain Savage!

I spent the whole weekend up on the mountain 45 minutes Northwest of Las Vegas.  Saturday I got a late start leaving the house..soo, i went up anyway to check the snow conditions (the plan was to go skiing all day Saturday). 

I was walking up the mountain from the parking area and ran into someone I knew from work at the hospital I work at.  We got a few beers and hung out, but didn't ski because it was too late (the lifts close at 4pm and we didn't get up there until 130pm. - would have been a waste of money).

Sunday I woke up at 8am got ready and drove up the mountain.  I arrived to the ski lodge at a good time.  I didn't have to wait to rent equipment or get my lift ticket.  The snow conditions were great!  The weather (wind, snow) was extreme for the first half of the day, but the second half was really calm and made for nice runs down the slopes.  My legs got really tired since I hadn't skiied in a minute.  I feel pretty good today though. 

I might go to Utah to go skiing next weekend.  Bigger Mountain, better snow there, should be good times..
