The big event today was the Powder, Peddle, Paddle race which has a free for all ski race from top to bottom, followed by a bike into town, a paddle back down the river and finally a run from the river back up to the base of the ski area.

Looks
cold doesn't it?
Not
cold enough to prevent the "Hewers of Wood" team from also becoming
"Drinkers of Water" as Geoff and Willard decide to take a break.

The afternoon skiing was typical very nice spring stuff. Most of it was with Tara (my 5 year old), but Davin (my 9 year old) and I did do a quick trip down Cedar Ridge and although skiable, it had some pretty slick spots. Stay in the sun though and it was great. Hopefully tomorrow will be equally nice so we can close out a great season in style.
