Stunning Saturday Ski

September 3, 2011   

This morning not too early Rob, Tommy and myself headed up to the Duse Plateau to find some snow. After a while we found a great slope with perfect snow if not a little thin in places.

Poor Tommy had a massive fight with a rock and caused some damage to his board but with his helmet on his head survived!

It was a really warm day and we ended up doing 4 or 5 runs after sitting at the top for 1/2 hour enjoying the view out Cumberland Bay.

After getting back to base around 3:45 I had a drink and then headed back out as the tide was really low leaving a wide open beach perfect for a run over to Grytviken and back. Then time for a sauna as someone had put it on earlier in the afternoon before Saturday night dinner. Pretty great day all in all.
