Nice afternoon for coaching our U12 “comp team” practice

Today, they went next level and had no choice but to stay in the tracks and ski straight up the big hills to get out to the Caldera rim. We usually let them wind their way up the easy, more gradual route, but not tonight. They do appreciate the view into the Valles Caldera every time. Quanah is always impressed that he skis all the out there under his own steam and even crosses out of Los Alamos County, into Sandoval County. It’s somehow epic to him that he crosses that imaginary line (well, there is a fence) 😉🤣
