Snowshoeing and funny ads....

Hey everyone - well the snowgods didn't appear to like our latest offering - no snow overnight :( Next time I will remember to do the snowdance with my clothes on :) Given there was no new snow we decided to have a sleep in. We've been waking up at 6:30am for the snow..... Yup I get up earlier for the snow then I do for work!

Given the lack of snowfall we decided to go for a snowshoe hike around the mountains near our place. We hiked for about 3 hours and have actually found a few nice areas where we could potentially go backcountry riding - walking up and down the hills is tiring but the potential fresh powder is a good motive to do it! Plus it keep you fit. Hiking at this altitude is hopefully good for us :-).


Besides Breck, we are actually within 20 mins drive of 2 other resorts - Keystone and A-Basin. Depending on who gets the most snow tomorrow we'll be heading there ;)

Completely off topic, was watching TV just then (ahhhh love cable!) and they had a hilarious ad to the tune of Elvis Presley's "Viva Las Vegas"......"dont let erectile disfunction affect your sex life - Viva Viagra!". Then it has these dodgy disclaimers including "see your doctor before deciding to have sex" (what if the doctor says no?!) and "If you notice you have an erection lasting for more then 4 hours, please seek medical assistance" (4 hours?!! Wow!). Why don't we get ads like that in Australia?!

Hope everyone is well (remember the 4 hour limit guys!)
