Well folks... this is going to be a very brief little update. Panorama ski hill was a little day trip the staff from Sunshine made. Baring Marmot (Jasper) this is the first reciprocal ski hill for me to hit... only 11 more to go, to achieve my New Years resolution!!
I think there were about 50 of us in total crammed onto a Brewster Bus, which headed out at an ungodly hour for a day off work; that said I did sleep for the full 2.5hrs it took to get there... so it wasn't all bad!
Whilst the ski hill has a lot of man made snow (being sunshine snobs that claim near enough 100% natural POW POW... this is the lingo the 18 somethings use for powder!!) the hill had thankfully had a bit of a fresh dusting, so the runs were actually very nice, and also, a lot longer than most of us were used to - leg burn was well and truly in effect!
It was a brilliant day, spent racing around the hill, bombing down mogal runs and dipping in and around trees....Well worth the visit.
