Last day in Crystal and first ones in Mt Baker
After eating Christmas dinner at a Mexican restaurant at Christmas Eve, we woke up to a new day with fresh powder. It was a quiet day at the mountain, but still a lot of locals to fight with, to reach the good stuff that been falling over night. But Tiana at Crystal marketing set us up with a Ski Patroller that took us skiing at O-Meadows (O for orgasm), an area that been closed, so no tracks except ours…Mackan took the first line; I and Kim threw a good old stone-paper-scissors to decide who to ski second which make the Patroller laugh. The snow was amazing and we got a lot of good clips for the movie.
When we came back to the resort we went for a nice all American style BBQ with beers and burgers at the Crystal lodge.
Half way home; a tree had fallen over the road and was blocking it. So there we and a lot of others were standing, talking and waiting for Tianas father to come to the rescue us with his chainsaw. Some of the lads did heroic attempt to pull the tree away, but when the chainsaw (which by the way has the biggest blade I have ever seen) everything was solved in just a minute.
Thank you Crystal Mountain for a great time and great experiences. Next stop Mt Baker. Latest forecast…..snow, snow and some snow on the top.
So after travelling for a couple of hours we were in the little town of Glacier which is located 30 minutes from Mt Baker, where we had rented a house.
To ski in Mt Baker comes with a lot of expectations, lot of snow, good tree skiing and great back country skiing. Yes, it was snowing, a lot! We had an average of 30cm fresh snow per day. So Mt Baker showed us it´s best side. The only bad things the first days was that it was snowing so much we had to stay in the forest to be able to take photos and to film.But the good thing, the tree skiing is great; a lot of space, nice pillows and other fine stuff to play with!
We soon write more of our trip to Mt Baker. See you all soon!!!
