Tubing Party
Big White held a free tubing party for staff on Tuesday. It came with a complimentary beef burger, salad, potato chips and all you could tube. It's the most people I've seen at the park since peak season, with long trains of tubers lining up and riding down. Snowballs were thrown, hot chocolate was spilt and revellers were crash tackled. Nobody made it to volleyball though. (Picture: Tim's amazing hair)


Another day on the snow
Went out with Emily and Sarah and we got a bit of footage of us on the slopes. I think I need to work on my camera style it's all over the place, which is a bit sad considering how late it is in the season. I keep on bruising my shins after getting air (but not doing anything too tricky). Have to work on those landings. (Picture 1: Falcon bowl - ski that; Picture 2: Emily resting her edges on the front face)

The day was pretty icy. We haven't had any decent snowfall for a few weeks now and the Spring sun and cold nights mean that we've got a 3 metre base of compressed snow which in some places is more like ice. Eek!
