Robbie and I took off from work at about 12 today and used some of our banked hours to roll up on Hollyburn before the Olympics close the entire Cypress backcountry from Dec 01/2009 to March 08/2010. Seriously. WTF, VANOC, WTF?!

Anyway, neither of us had been out there before, but it was actually super awesome, and holy shit I love skiing. Did one lap on the backside through some untracked gnar before coming back up over and down towards the city again. Hahaha, even though the back was awesome, I think that I had an ever better time on the trip back, due to the tightness/steepness of it all - it really reminded me of ripping through the trees at Jasper with Becky and Andrew, just trying your best not to run into any trees and go as fast as you can... So awesome!

Days Skiing so far this winter: 4. Touring: 3.
