I have two favourite types of skiing....deep cold temps when the snow is hard and fast, and then SPRING SKIING. Today was a prefect example of the latter. What a great day at Brimacombe!
We had a ton of fun today, from Club races to the Bambi Dual Slalom...and those tasty Orono Village Bake Shop fresh baked donuts!
