Well that was frigging rad. My buddy Carl gave me his old touring/backcountry setup and my other buddy (and Carl’s wife) @lisasunderman gave me the best lessons I’ve ever had for anything — to refresh my downhill ski chops. I’m beginner, but good enough— totally serviceable. We skinned up then skied down @mtspokane this morning. Incredible and so much fun. Just purchased an uphill pass and plan to go dawn patrol a couple days a week for the winter. Grateful.
