Went skiing today. It's late in the season, but probably some of the better conditions. We've had a small dump of snow which continues tonight. I went to Cardrona Ski Resort for the first time. 1 hour to base building isn't so bad. It's now my favourite in this area. The mountain felt bigger. Runs spread across the mountain more. I thought I was going to be uncoordinated as hell as I hadn't skied for 3 seasons, but turns out I still had it. As I drove out this morning, I got really excited for it. I think I don't do it more often, or don't buy a season pass, because I think the faff of skiing is too much. But really, it's not. It wasn't that hard to get myself organised and out the door. I've even got 4WD if I need it, so most of the time I don't need to put on chains in our conditions. Contemplating going for a skin tomorrow if the weather holds out.

It also made my elevation profile/website header look rad. This is rare, in there is flat runs in Vietnam, a spikey hill run back in New Zealand, and then my skiing today:
