I had to show this picture--really captures the snow rapture 

Skiing fun

Some of the latest images from my snowsport exploits...starting with Rob's backyard and moving to Big Sky and the Bridger range.

 

Winter wonderland






Not a great pictures, but check out the Tetons in the distance 

View from Rob's backyard...and the snowmachine mess


So much for the skiing here


Looking NE


That's no fake kind of smile

Lone Peak


Heck yes!


A little crusty and sparse, but look at that view


View of the Yellowstone Club...aka rich folk playground 

Slushman's gulch near Bridger Bowl...look at that trackless pow!


Adam is giddy


Skinny skins better than no skins...except when they fall off every 5 minutes 

Visit with the Steeds

Had a brief but fun visit with Bro and the fam while in the midwest for new year's...hopefully I'll get back often enough so the boys remember me as more than "the girl"

Will and Tyler, aren't they little gems?


The Steedsters

New Year's Evening

I made a pilgrimage to Green Bay, WI for Jamie and Rod's new year's wedding extravaganza...despite my bitching it was great to see everyone again and watch a great friend enjoy some much-deserved happiness

Cuuuute


Jamie's thoughts, "I am SO glad I bought this sexy fur shawl!"
Rod's thoughts, "I really love Jamie's sexy fur shawl"


The girlies...why so blurry? 

Christmas Day

Rob and I skinned up and skied a secret powder stash for the holiday...being my first week skiing, I fell a bunch but still had a great day

Looking out from the top


We skied the far right of the three runs you can see...it's mostly hidden in this pic 

This is fun


Mmm, cookies


Almost there...


It's all down from here! 

Bounty of the Gravelly Range

My first deer-hunting experience! I didn't shoot it, but I found other ways to contribute. 

Grouse hunting near Henry's Lake

Tasty little chickens!




The infamous gulch that swallowed my cell phone...and later spat it out 

Lazy day

Rob and I explored a couple of lakes not far from his house earlier this week...lovely they were

Cliff Lake




Rob sits on water...figure that one out


Guess who 

Hike to Hilgard Basin

I took a hike to Hilgard Basin last week, and a detour up Sentinal Peak along the way. Something like 16-18 miles, gorgeous views. As usual, though, there isn't a lot of order to these pics.

Rock cairn...looked like something else from a distance
