1st day at smuggs this year

I just finished up day one of my annual visit to smuggler's notch. It was an unusual day,at least given past experience here. Some of the best hardpack for edge-hold I've seen for a while led to extreme-ish carving on wide green trails. My opinion is that shallow goes with shallow as much as steep goes with deep. Mandy got some great pics which I'm sure will find their way into the teleboarding book.
Also, I ended up spending 75% of my day teaching friends to ski (mostly telemark, some alpine)--all while riding my teleboard of course. I enjoyed the teaching--it must have been the right day for it. Anyway, it got the gears turning, and I've just decided that it is now time for my first major editing pass through the book.
It's good to be motivated :-)
I'll post pictures when we get back home, but right now it's hot tub o'clock.
Happy trails!
