Day 24: Dec 7

We dropped off the kids in Essex today and headed straight to Stowe, by car.  This is definitely the most painful way to get to the mountain; the ski commute is far better. There’s something strange about why I get more aggravated by following a car going 40 mph than skiing uphill at 2 mph…

However, the conditions were once again amazing, especially in the trees. The main trails tend to get scrapped off quite early in the day and with the base being frozen solid, it’s a little sketchy. Hence, the goods are found in the trees. 

The life of the ski bum really sucks. I wish I was at work in a windowless cubicle.
