It was a very blue day to ski in Whistler, with Stacey,Torr, Zoe and Neil. It turned really warm in the afternoon, that almost everyone was down to their first layer.

I did my first double-diamond with them in the scret bowl, where we saw a few small avalanches on the side. But overall, It was a nice spring ski day. My knees and quads were so sore.

The next morning, I went snowshoeing with Tyson and Brian at Cypress. A short trip up the hill, enjoying again a blue-sky morning.
