That's it. We spent our last weekend on skis for this winter.
We skinned up millcreek canyon and after 4.5 miles arrived at the yurt, where we
spent the night with some friends. But before we enjoyed a delicious fondue we
climbed the ridge behind the yurt, to ski our last aspen slope.


Back in the yurt we warmed ourselves up at the wood stove and introduced our american
friends to the fondue tradition. It was definitely worth carrying the heavy caquelon up the canyon!
The next morning we were glad to have our skis for the way down. Although the snow was icy we could still enjoy the beauty of the canyon before we headed back to the city.
And next year we will definitely reserve the yurt including powder snow.
