Day 244: Snowboarding!!


View down the lift line to the obscured plains below

ridin' the lift
I decided to take advantage of my employee lift pass and use it on my day off to go snowboarding with my friend Mel.  We enjoyed super weather and good snow conditions and I improved enough to ride the lift all the way to the top of the mountain and snowboarded down without falling!!! Which is pretty exciting since falling is basically my signature move.  Check out the awesome view down the lift line.  In the background you can see the access road and all the low lying clouds in the distance are covering up the Canterbury plains that stretch away east to the sea, which means that down in Methven it's an overcast, grey day while up on the mountain the sun is shining away...
