Bluebird Day in Russia

The competition was post-poned until thursday due to the highly reactive snow. As we rode the chairlifts up to the top of the mountain we witnessed two natural slides. The crowns did not look large, mostly slough, but a lot of snow was moving everywhere. The blue sky provided great light for scouting and powder skiing. I spent most the day staring through binoculars looking for a winning line.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are two main features at the top of the venue.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I will be skiing first for the women, but that also means 40 men will have skied before me. I am planning on skiing a line off the Egg, unless the men have destroyed the face. Tomorrow we load the lifts at 7:00 am and aim to start the competition at 9:00.
