Skiing, Bald Eagles, Cows, and Passing our OEC

We skied this weekend - opening day at CB was on Saturday. It's incredible to have a world class ski mountain out our backdoor.










We drove to Gunnison this morning to run some errands and saw a bunch of bald eagles on the way back. Pretty amazing to see so many bald eagles in one spot - all feeding off of the dying Kokanee Salmon.








Further up the road they were driving cattle down the road.

Later on this evening we had to take our Outdoor Emergency Care written and practical exams - (they're a National Ski Patrol standard requirement). Liz and I both passed!

Our first day of official patrolling will be on Thursday! (yes that's right - Thanksgiving)



Liz and I will be returning to PA for a visit in January - the 4th through the 10th - let us know if any of you will be around.
