Owl's Head

Today was the best ski day ever. Our friends Kim, Kate, Ben and Pascal invited us to join them for a day of skiing at Owl's Head. About an hour and a half away from here, it's well worth the drive. Being a Monday (and a PED day for the kids) we were hoping to have a good part of the mountain to ourselves. Boy were we treated right. Look at the parking.

Let's just say it was an amazing day. The girls worked on their techniques, the boys on, well, pretty much nothing as they just flew down the mountain as often as they could.

Owl's Head is an amazing mountain high enough to make you wonder when it is you're going to arrive at the bottom. The main face has a lot of interesting runs, from the majestic Lilly's Leap, to the black diamond Standard, to the oh so very fast Shady Lady, where I got to reach speeds of 89 km/h+.

Thanks so much to Kim, Pascal, Kate and Ben for a wonderful day.

When we got home we got to watch the first episode of Suzanne's show, VoirGrand.tv  -- it's really cool to see her on TV, she has great presence.
