Day 9 : Jackson Hole = tired legs

All the driving over the last few days was worth it. We skied Jackson Hole today and tested out our legs much more than our couple of days at Mammoth. There had been a few inches of fresh snow overnight, so the runs all had a dusting of new snow. This morning was sunny and clear, it started snowing about lunch time, but visibility was still reasonable. I tested out my new OTG goggles (over the glasses) and loved being able to see where I was going, read the maps, the signs, the lunch menu and see what I was eating. The googles-glasses combination was very comfortable and I wont be going back to skiing without glasses. Though being able to see everything clearly, I think, means I have a new appreciation for how steep some of the slopes are.

Could still do with more snow but much better here than Mammoth. Legs got a good workout - hope they get ski fit soon...

Lucky we are skiing somewhere Margo has skied before - now that she can see the slope she can see how steep they are - so I keep telling her that she has skied them before when she couldn't see and loved them so should be easier now that she can see!!!
