Ski Touring at Mulvehill with Matt, Tara, and Licorice

Fresh snow in the lower cut block


Looking up above the cut blocks to the ridge we skied onto, and numerous skis lines coming down


More freshies on the way up


Matt, Licorice, and Tara nearing the top of the upper cut block


Looking across the valley to the east and RMR (Revelstoke Mountain Resort)


The snow keeps getting better!


Kimmer looking dwarfed by this massive cedar


Could barely hug this bohemith!


Upper ridge with ski lines dropping in to the left


Looking onto the Monashee range to the west


Peak I'm not sure the name of


Matt enjoying a well deserved luch in the sun!


Nice, skiable slope for next time :)


Glacier capped peaks in the Monashee Mountains


My over exposed photo eye


More camera fun!


Interesting angle on this deceased tree


Tara and Matt soaking up the sun on our ridge top sun deck

Smiles for the decsent that lies below us

Nice, Monashee powder!

Absorbing the landing


Setting up the next turn


More fun


Can't get enough!

Really fun day with beautiful weather ski touring at the Mulvehill cut blocks with Matt, Tara, and Licorice. Licorice did exceptionally well for an 11 year dog! Fantastic skiing with good friends :)
