Today we hooked up with C.G and Rich at 7 o'clock this morning to go cat skiing.!
That's when you jump in the back of a snowcat and ride up the mountain for some great backcountry pow without any lifts, crowds, hikes or standing in lines.!

The conditions weren't the best and what you dream of, but pretty close.
We managed 9 runs in forest powder in 5 hours.
the first two were a bit boring and to easy, but they were like test runs to see what we could handle.. but after that it was crazy fun.! And the guides were really good and funny but still professional.
one, Lee-Ann, is apparently 2 times world champ in extreme skiing!!
the only thing was that we would like to have a bit longer runs and with no stops. but with a avalanche risk of extreme it's maybe better to play safe right..
I still got some best riding in my life, and the last couple of goes they just let us loose to go nuts.. at lunch break we wrestled in the snow and found a little pillow to throw flips out of, just like a bunch of kids hehe..
And what a luxury getting driven up there in a big machine with bus kind of seats. :D !
This was really a dream come true.. next time we go for some heli-skiing.!!!
