Good snow at Cote 2000

We skied at Cote 2000 again today. The snow was good and the visibility was better than yesterday, though it was a little cloudy until lunch time. We spent most of the day playing around on the top section and we shot some video. Note to self: head cam in white out doesn't work that well...

We ate at the Radaz restaurant and watched the snow slides start from the ridge above Cote 2000 again. The recent snow has covered up all of the bare patches that were visible on 15th March so now it can all slide off again.

Although much of the head cam video was fairly useless due to lack of visibility we did some more video in the afternoon with Miche using the camera as intended, from a fixed point, filming some of my descents. We filmed me on several different slopes during the afternoon and I skied without thinking too much, "just did it". The results are consistent across all of the runs, which is good. It's the first time I've seen myself ski since our Verbier trip in December and I'm quite pleased with the results. I'll edit and upload the footage later but my feet and lower body and general balance are much better than before but my arms and hands still need work, those drills that I did yesterday have yet to stick... Still, it would be no fun if you could just do it...
