I decided not to ski again today. Another bluebird day in Rossland meant no new snow and groomers didn't appeal. Would have been a good day to break out the skis again today though; even though Red is known for it's trees there are actually some nice wide runs to play on too. But since my ski boots are back in NZ I decided to just take a snowshoe walk instead later in the day.
So mostly packing today and organising.
The snowshoe walk ended out being an exploration up Monte Christo and down Snake (which is a mountain bike trail). It was fun trying to follow it down and checking out some of the buried stunts.
So that was it for Red. A few good byes and a yummy prawn curry for dinner at Trinas and off too bed.
It was great to be back here again. I mentioned to a few friends this place is definitely a humbling sort of place to ride. Steep trees definitely show you where you are at. It's inspiring though, makes you want to get better.
I'm also super lucky that although there has not been any significant snowfall while I've been here I've still gotten in plenty of fresh tracks thanks to my touring buddies. It worked out well since I wanted to do some touring while I was here. Big thanks to them.
Tomorrow be be the start of the final leg of the search. Can Japan live up the the hype?
