More Road Trips and Snowdays. Keep'em coming please!

A rare line at Lyford

Any excuse is a good one to Hire a lodge and fill its jacuzee with skibums. And this last weekend coincided with a famous persons birthday which was all the excuse we needed. The snow up at Lydford wasn't anything worth writing a blog about but we had fun and after much trial and error found the best way to ski with snowboard boots on and get 4 people down the hill on 1 snowboard.
So thanks to Lynette, Dobby, Erin, Talyor, Hadfield, Schnieder, Plug, Caitlin, Matt, and Vinny for another awsome weekend of jacuzees, a few beers, ice cold glacial lakes, beers, natural hot pools, more beers and a couple of hours skiing crud.

Nice Group Shot, but this was as close as we got to the mountain...

A decent southerly front whipping up some fresh straight from Antarctica this week called for two things, Uni Closed and Ski missions in the Port Hills!
