Nice post Liam!
 
Interesting how skiing tends to meld the young and old(er) together. Not many sports can create that kind of multi generational participation and "vibe". Skiing (again) wasn't even on my radar until one of my kids, now grown with a career of her own, jumped into the sport and urged me to come along for some father daughter time.
 
Just last week during chairlift chat, we were talking about "getting Bug (neice/grandaughter now 3 yrs old) up here with us". While none of us are patrol or likely to be considered "rippers", it will be amazing to have all enjoying the snow together. The makings of great times and memories.
 
A tribute to a great sport....!!
