And Balsams Ski-O Day 2, Blue Long
Definitely my longest ski-o yet, was tuckering out by the end for sure. Fun times, looking at splits, I messed up 6 pretty bad by deciding to around the top. Didn't look so bad on paper at all. Guess you lose out on some of the going-down contours cause you *have* to snow plow some of "The Wall", so it's less speedy. Ah well.
Also, Robbie's option of going up the Wall on the long leg looks like it was a bunch faster. I cut a switch back, bet you can see in my track where I slow down almost to a standstill as I almost got eaten by the snow. Doubt that it lost tons of time, but still probably a bit silly...
Came in 2nd for M21, behind Robbie by over 10 min, but sneaking in front of Adrian and Scott for 1st American, woo.
Super duper big thanks to Alex, Ed, Ernst, Lex and Pete and anyone and everyone who actually helped picking up controls or in any other way!! Was super great fun!
