Wednesday's are fun photo days and we left no photo unturned this morning! I had my awesome group of six, which coincidentally is enough people to make a pyramid with. After wasting half the morning sorting kids and then taking photos, we finally got on the gondi and went up. We did a warm up run down Ego Bowl, dropping into the soft powder. It's tracked out but it's still soft and still fun. We got tree clearance from patrol today so next run we headed for Marmot Trees. The snow was sweet through there and the kids went down the harder tree line run instead of the easier green way out so that was cool and a bonus for me cause the trees were sweet!
The sun poked in and out of the clouds all day. After lunch we tried our abilities in the terrain park for the first three jumps. Needless to say, that didn't go too well. We made our way back to Ego Bowl where I taught the kids that the whole mountain can be a "park" if you know where to look. Last run we dropped into the bumpy pow run off Whiskey Jack, then over to Wild Card and down Expressway to finish the day.
After sign-outs, Aimee and Shrek and I headed back up for "last run". Since the lifts are open until 4pm now, most instructors can get in one more run before the mountain closes. We headed to Mom and Pop trees where the powder was sweet.
Eric McCormick from Will & Grace had his daughter in for ski lessons so I managed to "stalk" him down and get a photo with him. Nice guy. I love when celebs come to Whistler! : )
