On January 24th I skied Revelstoke’s “The Last Spike” from the top to almost the bottom. When I got to the top I missed the entrance to “The Last Spike” and started down a double black diamond run by mistake. I had to sidestep back up, nearly to where I got off the lift, to get started on “The Last Spike” run.
Once I got started I learned even though “The Last Spike” is considered a green run, it is quite narrow and in places the edge of the run is basically a super gnarly cliff. I must have done a million turns doing my best to stay away from the edge and the cliffs.
Not quite as much fun as I thought it would be.
But it was absolutely beautiful, Yeehaw!
