G3, V and B Day...and the Jura!

...so did you think it snowed???? It DID! The crew (Al, Jay, Tom, and KK) headed off Saturday AM to G3 to catch the first bucket. Upon arrival there was 1 car!..and us.

As we got to the top it was cold and foggy but that did not deter us from making the most for the great snow..and the crew did.
Ready to rock!




Time to ski!








...WOOHOO!!! How about a little traditional beer around 330?

That night we headed over the Jen and J's to celebrate Jen's B-day with a little fondue and wine!



After a nice nights sleep (thanks J and J) and a chill AM KK and I hit up La Dole for a few turns on a nice sunny day in CH.



GG playing in the pow:

..and to finish the day a great view with a little wildlife:


...another great weekend with my little KK in CH.....more to come as always....

PS: We are truly blessed!

Saas Redux!!! MOMOMO POW!!!

This winter is off the scale...snow, more snow, and more more SNOW!!! After watching the radar for 3 days Jay, KK, and I headed off on a mission to find the pow. We made a last minute decision to hit Saas Fee in the corner of the Vallis.

We dawn patrolled it on Saturday AM and arrived after a 3 hour drive to lifts closed and a snowy day. At around 10 it opened up and I opened up the big camera (thanks Mom and Dad!)


The clouds were around but so was a little clearing! Jay was stoked!

..and ready to rip!



...so was KK:




That PM Tom joined us and we bunked up in a nice little two room studio for 35CHF PP..a great deal in CH...ski in ski out!
The next day it was on again with Tom!



..and Jay!




..and KK!

..another great day. KK and Tom had work on Monday but J and I took the day off, so they headed home and J and I grabbed another room and waited for the clearing in the AM..and CH did not disappoint!

We left Monday at around 4pm....BEAT and when I mean beat....totally spanked. I arrived home to some great chicken soup and a nice warm hug from KK. Another one for the books.....what a great 2009!
