After a couple of great days Snowboarding on Xmas Eve & Xmas day (at Lake Louise & Sunshine respectively), we all had a rest on Boxing day knowing the crowds would be out of control. So today we figured it would be a bit better (we were so wrong) and headed to Lake Louise nice & early. I had promised Kerri some personal snowboarding lessons & hung out on the learner's slope with her for the morning.
Just before lunch, Kerri needed a rest & I managed to sneak one run in. It was terrible! I waited in the lift line for about 10 mins & the run down was icy & busy with idiots. We met up with Shane & Dale who had had enough as well. We all cashed in our tickets (half day refund), had lunch & headed home.
The Fairmount has a way of fleecing you for money at any time of year.This one makes a good shot, but it not something I'll be jumping out of my skin to do.
Thanks to its position & altitude, it always seems to be cold Lake Louise. The last thing I want to do is ride around in a two horse open sleigh.....
Poor Santa. I know he only works one day a year, but it's a tough gig.
