Another blue sky day today. And it was Bruces first try back on his ankle. So it was off to Southern Comfort in Paradise for us. It's a beautiful wide run that has some steeper sections in it. All tree lined of course and the trees are also lots of fun when there is a bit more new snow about.
Unfortunately Bruces ankle didn't think it was fun and basically didn't really hold up to the test very well. We did that run and then Rino's Run and out.
An expensive test but in the context of the trip it was a necessary thing. I had fun too, riding switch down the greens and trying out butters; I still suck at both.
So that was it for Bruce at Red. Of course that didn't stop him from buying up hard at Red Mountain shop! At least he'll look the part.
I did 4 or 5 runs on Red after that though to try and get more value out of my ticket. I have always wanted to try and carve a full circle and Main Run on Red is a good wide run to do it on. I tried it twice and probably got to about 230 degrees? I also did a few runs down Hole in the Wall which was hard and not that nice. Cliff had some softer, funner stuff down below as did War Eagle trees.
But overall the hill is pretty tracked out though so I am contemplating not going to the hill again tomorrow. We'll see of course!
