Day 46 | level fives

Today was my scheduled day off but I was asked to work since it's the day after Australia Day and most Aussies are usually too hung over to come to work.  I didn't mind since I have a few extra days off next week.  Much to my surprise, I was assigned Level Fives (first time this season).  I thought about giving them up and doing Lil Rippers with Morgan, but then I came to my senses and realized it would be much more fun to actually snowboard for the day instead of take care of 5 year olds for the day.

It took us an hour to get from the queue at the Village Gondola to the Roundhouse this AM.  That didn't leave us much time to shred before lunch.  We weren't allowed to go through the trees today so we took our warm up run down Green Acres.  The snow on the groomers wasn't that great but if you ran the more difficult runs, there was still good snow to be found on the side of the runs.  The three boys were fast!  We managed to get in three runs before the 11:15am lunch, and one of those runs was from Garbanzo Chair.

After lunch we opted to snowboard on Blackcomb.  Flaik reported we ran 18.5 miles when the day was said and done.  I was tired by the end and I was happy I didn't go with the Lil Rippers instead.
