chris volkart mountain life: School is done!!! Back to playing!

Well the past week and a half I've felt like a real student! All fun aside it was time to buckle down and get my papers written, my exams studied for and completed...But now thats all a distant memory! While most of my fellow students are doing their 80 hour wilderness first responder course...a few of us are feeling pretty lucky that we already did that course. So to pass our time while we wait for everyone to finish its long suffering days at the local ski hill sun peaks!!!! The weather was looking nice saturday morning when me jessie and justin loaded up the car and headed out. It was all smiles as we headed up the lift for our first run of the year!

The trees where white, the snow was thin....but we were not in class anymore! After a few runs I heard my phone ringing mid run...Another classmate arrived at the base so we sped off to meet him and complete our team to make an even four.

We skied all day and learned where to good runs were on our new hill...it was smiles all around and you could hear shouts and WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE's all the way down the runs...we were treated with beautiful views everywhere we looked, so without further adue...i will stop talking and let you see the goods!
