The Beauty of April
As full time ski racers we spend eleven months a year in organized training and racing. The month of April is typically considered a break from this routine. A chance to engage in more unstructured activities, to give especially the mind a brief chance to relax before launching back into a new year. For the MOD Squad, April is chance to hit the backcountry slopes for some great North Cascades ski touring. On Saturday Erik, Scott and I ventured up and over Delancey Ridge and into Leap Creek to find powder. It was a beautiful day in the mountains and a great tour!
