“Checked out Moraine lake Road today. Didn’t seem to good at all, looked really thin and icy. Frozen thunder is probably a lot better.”
Thank you to Ian for relaying this photo and information.

I was curious and intrigued by the name of Dasha Gaiazova’s ski club. There is a story behind it which you can read Space Dogs Ski Club story.
We had a great time at MLR today. Fun skiing to the top, cold coming down in the rain. Good early season conditions helps work all the little balance muscles. This was not your mid season Canmore corduroy. Thin in some places, but you could easily ski around them. Snow is thick enough in others that they could have groomed last night; it would have been amazing if they did. Some challenging deeper soft sections. This is not your typical early season MLR, it felt quite coastal. Heading back up tomorrow! It’s nice to get away from the “Melting Thunder”* although we skied there yesterday too

I love the sounds of spring-like skiing in the video, though its hard to distinguish between the ski running on slush or ice -).
Rain and drizzle all day at mlr and Lake Louise today. My daughter skated skied to the end of mlr today with our club but didn’t have much fun as conditions were poor. Pray for snow!
