From North to South

Amy's ramblings. Once upon a time these ramblings pertained to my 5 months in Guatemala and Honduras. Then they followed the ebb and flow of my final semester in Alaska. From there things really went south ... to Argentina, Bolivia and Chile. After 8 months in the Andes, I fell back under Alaska's spell … working at a newspaper and wandering mountains. Now I'm somewhat south again ... in Jackson Hole, WY, teaching ski school on the clock and making fresh tracks off the clock.

Taking it to the Max... on Max's Run

Today was another blow your socks right off your feet day... or a blow your boots right off your socks day... or a blow your skis right off your boots day... or a blow the snow right off your skis day... yeah, that's it! All sorts of snow definitely blew off our skis today!

Oh and did I mention the views! Maybe the new name of this blog outta be "Another spectacular day." There seems to have been a lot of those lately. And we're only in the beginning of February... the month of snow and sunshine! MY CHEEKS ACTUALLY GOT ROSEY TODAY! It's the first time I've skinned up in the sun all season. Haleluja to longer days, cold temperatures and light snow to boot!

Two weeks since the last snow fall and still plenty of fresh tracks to be had

Look at those rosey cheeks

Weather inversion baby! It was warm up on top... a good 10 degrees!

I really like this photo! We skied right through the colds and into the cold temps below

Ben, watch out for the wall of clouds!
