March was a tough month to motivate to ski, but luckily I had a few fun events to get me back on skis for Turns All Year Month 29!
The month kicked off with a She Jumps event to get the girls out on the slopes – and get out we did! Continuing my tradition of skiing on the first of the month with Theresa, we donned our Saturday’s best (aka festive tutus) and joined the ranks of lady skiers to rip down the mountain.
I’m serious, everyone RIPPED.
We unloaded the chair and minutes later were at the bottom without stopping. I looked around quizzically and said to the group, “Are we waiting for anyone???”, then suddenly and EXCITEDLY exclaimed, “We’re NOT waiting for anyone!”
We had an awesome day and the mountain even came out to give us a lovely view. I was stoked Lisa made it out for a ski day too (and of course, skied in a tutu)!
Never one to be satisfied, in the middle of March I took a blitz-trip down to Shasta to try and summit another 14’er. We were blown off the mountain but had a great time regardless. Here’s a photo that didn’t make the original blog:
To put a solid exclamation mark on the end of Month 29 of Turns All Year, I headed up to Stevens with Matt. We enjoyed weekend turns in the sunshine (aka drinking on the chairlifts and cruising groomers). Not a bad way to spend a Saturday, or get another month of Turns All Year.
Jumping in the air is really hard when you're pooping a person!
