The first (and last) time I went snowboarding I was pushed down the mountain and ended up breaking my wrist and two ribs.

I went skiing the next day.

Skiing with broken wrist & ribs!?

I didn't know they were broken at the time... Just knew it hurt. It wasn't until a few days later after I got home that decided I should probably get it checked out.

OK I'm going there tomorrow! I can't wait! I'll try my new boots & bindings. They are waiting for some more snow today. 40 inches of snow in 48 hours...

I had a great day! Now I'm totally exhausted. I left home at 5AM for a 3.5 hours trip. My first ride, I was wedged in deep powder snow for 15 minutes in the glades. After I mostly jumped on big soft moguls from 9AM to 4PM.

Some pictures.

Today's favorite trail...

My board...

The icy Saint-Laurent river...

Thanks TJ!

A little clip... the little path to the mountain. The snow drifts were impressive...
