Fossil Mountain

Mandy on Fossil Mountain, Wind River Peak in the background.

After over a foot of new snow fell on a shallow base last Wednesday around Lander-- it primed some areas just off the loop road for good early season skiing. I went up Thursday and did a few laps (seven) and then took Mandy up a day later for a few more. Good stuff- especially when it's so close to home!

Mandy's day.

Shad skis the Winds!

Going up.

Looking down on one of our runs.

Back at the sled, callin' it a day!

The day before- ready for my first run!

Looking down on it, after it was over.

A look back at the whole day.
