Interesting climb prep

When you have been awake that long is skiing still a joy or is it a struggle? I like your nighttime ascent shot.

Re: Interesting climb prep

Interesting indeed, I guess I feel the need to handicap myself... allthough I'm not that great in the first place so it may be a bad strategy :)

The ski was pretty difficult for me. The lack of visibility and variable snow conditions didn't really let you relax, and after moving for that long and being at altitude without acclimating I was definitely digging deep. Once we got bellow the clouds and I could see I was able to get some great turns in.
