This.

This is why we bundle up, put on heavy, clunky ski boots, and gasp for oxygen at 11,000+ feet. Aside from the sheer fun of skiing, bien sur.

First lift ride of the day...

First run of the day

Notice anything missing? There were several times yesterday when le monsieur and I had the entire run to ourselves. It will get more crowded as the week progresses, but what a way to start the week!
Jeune homme had a fabulous first day. He was grinning from ear to ear and even did a happy dance in his ski boots at the end of the day. Needless to say, we were breathing a big sigh of relief.

This is my favorite run on the mountain.

Action shot. 

Hope you're having a lovely week!
