Lazy Bums

Okay, so we've been really lazy all Christmas break, way lazier than normal for us. Today, we were supposed to get up early to go ski touring. 'Early' pretty much passed us by at 7am, 8am, 9am...seriously, we slept until 9:30. So after eating breakfast, getting dressed & ready, and packing a lunch, it was nearly lunchtime.

But it was a gorgeous day so we weren't going to not ski. We headed out to Chair Peak and were surprised that the lower bowl was completely tracked out.

We kept on going and then ripped our skins for a short wind-swept downhill slope to Snow Lake. Ate a quick lunch on frozen Snow Lake and admired some tracks on Roosevelt, our original goal.

Alas, we didn't have enough daylight to trek all the way out there, so we settled for a not-so-big slope above us. We didn't even have enough time to get to the top of this particular peak, but there wasn't much skiing above us anyway (mostly rocks and tight trees).

It was a great day outside in the blue sky mountains with my dear husband and we got a little exercise, so it was a success in those ways. Not a lot of skiing though. I think we need to get up just a tad earlier.
