new skis


Finally, Fred and I bought us some AWESOME skis!
It took us a while to decide what skis we want and then to find some that weren't too expensive.
Fred bought alpine touring skis and bindings and I decided to get telemark equipment.
Telemark skiing is quite big here, due to the perfect powder conditions we've got here almost all winter.


We've already tried our skis on the slopes and in the backcountry and they rock!



A week ago we skinned our way up through aspen groves early in the morning. And by 10.30 am we reached Reynolds peak, a 9422 feet mountain in Big cottonwood canyon, which is about 30 min from our house.



We enjoyed a great day with perfect sunshine and a stunning view over the wasatch range.
And we even found some untouched powder snow!
