The chill of the mountain air, the squeak of the snow beneath your skis, the anticipation as you lock in and prepare for your first run..... yes folks the ski season is upon us again.
Just in case your sitting around in blazing summer sunshine somewhere in the USA or Canada and thinking what is this guy smoking, I'll just point out that I'm an aussie so for us down under the season is just beginning.
Ok, now your probably thinking who the hell does this aussie think he is, talking about snow and skiing? I thought Australia only had desert, surfing and enormous amounts of beer.
Well believe it or not we do have snow, its not much but its better then nothing and it was the runs at Perisher and Thredbo that first fostered my love of skiing and led me to the towering mountains and deep powder of Canada earlier this year.
That is a story best left for another day however, for now its time to sit back, wax my skis, stick on the latest offering from Warren Miller or Matchstick and anxiously await that June long weekend when I can ride the slops once more.
