Most sunny ski days lead to Broken Top. On this day, however, the sun was being a bit fickle so we decided to ski its next door neighbor: Ball Butte. Ball Butte is a fun little spot right next to a wilderness boundary, which means you can park your snowmobile right at the bottom and start skinning up.
We geared up, got all our skis loaded up on our sleds, and took off! Smiley was my passenger for the day. All aboard the ski train!
We enjoyed the views on our way up to the high country. Smiley was squealing with happiness for the entire ride. I think that will be a requirement for all my future passengers!
The snow was soft in the sunshine and firm in the shadows, so we spent the rest of the day climbing, skiing, and chasing the sun.
Beautiful indeed!
Looked like a great day! And the part never ends.....
