Last weekend I headed off for the North Face Masters in Snowbird, Utah. Powder turns and a lot of “hurry up and wait” practice. After two days of competition hold, mad inter lodge, long lines and sweet pow I came to the conclusion that driving nine hours last minute to catch a flight to Switzerland was not in the cards for me. I left before the Snowbird comp had begun. My ladies killed it. Shannon Yates taking the sword, Mary Boddington in fourth-congratulations! My favorite moment of that weekend was watching the largest posse of all time schralping down the slope. Like grown up skittle gangsters!

The four flights to France went super smooth. Rode Brevent today-the venue location. It could use a fresh coat. Hopefully we get it. Contest to go off Sat. or Sunday. My bad luck with phones followed me to Europe and my “global phone” that doesn’t work in the US or Europe says it’s Sun, Jan. 7th at 4:30 am. Will Bromelsek, my current roommate, and I walked two miles in the wrong direction yesterday looking for dinner after long flights (he came from Russia). So between my awesome sense of direction and my dependable phone I’m sure to show up at the right time, right place, and ride in the right direction. GO GRAVITY!!! All in the name of adventure.
