Cracker of a Day!

We woke up on Saturday morning just in time to catch the most incredible sunrise.


After much oooooing and ahhhhhing, in that order, we thought we should make the most of the day and headed up the Remarks for a couple of hours on our boards, closely followed by a couple of hours on skis. On the way back down, we stopped take a look at this "wind lip" - which is formed when a big dump of snow is accompanied by gale force winds. This one was about 25 feet high.


Further down the road we couldn't resist this photo of Lake Hayes reflecting the mountains behind it.


And after that, we topped the day off with a couple of hours' trout fishing down by the golf course, where Greg let all the small quinnat salmon go... and then remembered that it would have made a good meal for Burton. Oh well, what he doesn't know won't hurt him....
