Multi-sport day on Highway 35. Snowmobiling, family sledding, and some kite skiing on an absolutely gorgeous day!

Took my own advice from today's avy forecast and traveled on low angle slopes, scoring beautiful powder in terrain with no overhead hazard, where I didn't even have to remember how to spell avalanche... but I do recall there's an "e" at the end :)

A long and rewarding day, that wrapped up with a light show close to home.
