Sunshine, Mountain Goats and the Cornice Run

I was out on the hill skiing yesterday between 10 and noon. The conditions were perfect. The snow was very soft, but the slush wasn't too deep yet. As everyone in Colorado knows, the last couple weeks have been overcast and even smoky from the Canadian fires. The sun was out yesterday and it felt great. The Cornice Run and the West Wall, in particular, were outstanding.

I even spied my first mountain goat of the season up on the Little Lenawee ridge. I know it is not an incredible photo, but it was nice to see the big guy wandering around up there.

Right now there isn't a cloud in the sky and I am heading up the hill for a repeat of yesterday.
