Skiing in the rain
Date Posted: 20.42hrs on Sun 9 Nov 14
An ode to skiing in the rain, albeit American rain. The line about 'Gloves becoming sponges' reminds me of Nevis range on January 1st 2000. About 50 people turned up to ride. It was a above zero and pelting it down. However, the frozen springs hadn't melted so no soft landings in you fell.

That makes me think of my wettest days skiing ever, Jan 2007 at Mount Snow Vermont. It felt like being in the shower but I still had a great day.
