Skiing Mt. Bachelor !!

Since USUALLY honesty is the best policy, I must admit it was not I that skied Mt. Bachelor today. Jennifer and Ryan are visiting for a few days and Ryan brought his skis - so it was off to Mt. B this AM.

Ryan took a number of photos (at Ms. Helen's request) while he was on the mountain.

Apparently on his very first run, Ryan took the lift to the top of the mountain, only to discover that visibility was a LITTLE tough. So he ended up in an ungroomed area with deep snow that was a "little" hard to turn in. This picture shows how many went this direction before him - HUM apparently not many:



This picture shows Ryan celebrating his skill(LUCK?)in managing to get back down from the top:




This is a most excellent view of the mountain that is called Broken top:



A fun shot at the top showing what appears to be signs that point to nowhere:



A tree near the summit that shows how fierce the winds and general environment can be at the top:


And finally - the view of the Woman waiting for her MAN to come down from the mountain - hopefully with a fresh kill for dinner!
