First off, stoked to write my first entry with RMU, and I hope for many more!
I’ll start off with Friday night, the 7th.
It hadn’t really hit me yet that I needed to pack a bag to go skiing.
Back home in Michigan, skiing starts in late November, or early December…If we are lucky.
So, to be honest, I was a little shocked.
Then, dawn came on Saturday the 8th.
Well, not literally, it was still dark out.
But I popped out of bed with ease because I knew what I had ahead of me.
I literally was in awe.
I knew that today was going to be the best day ever.
And, it was.
I got off, took my first run, with many stops for breaths and laughing.
One in particular, included a lip, with about a 15 foot drop over a huge hole.
Will got me to hit it without scoping, and sure enough, I knuckled the hole and tomahawked.
Once I stood up, snow covered, I knew that season had officially started.
The season has started here in CO!
Get out and enjoy it!

I apologize for not having many photos; I was too stoked to be skiing!
