Silver Star Day 2 – Electric Boogaloo

Another great day of skiing behind us.  Despite some rigid muscles, we were able to get into the groove and hit some new trails.  Today the group met up to get some good tree skiing in along with a day of groomers.  What's better than pizza for dinner?  Leftover pizza for lunch!

2 pizzas and half a bag of nacho chips later, we decided to hit the trail again. One thing that’s great about having mid-winter break in Canada is that its not a break for the locals, so we had most of the mountain to ourselves. We took full advantage of that and had a great time taking every trail we could get on.

In true Troop 466 style, we had some antics at the hill, this time in the form of some unusual tandem skiers. We’re certainly leaving an impression on the mountain.


Everyone seemed to be having a great day on the hill.  Tyler tried to get the adults to do a little run called “Peanut”, but the ski instructors we met on the lift thought better of it. About mid-day the sun came out for a while and softened up the snow.  That brought lots of smiles and great conditions for afternoon skiing.

After a full day of skiing, we decided to get one last run in before we stopped to grab dinner.  Our local jesters decided to do a quick table-top at the park. 


This  resulted in a bit of a “banana split”, but everyone was cheering them on and it was a spectacular jump.  For now, we’re back at the hostel, soaking up some relaxation before dinner, then we’re going to head out to Tube Town tonight. 

Stay tuned for more craziness to come from the Venture Crew!
