Start with a large mountain...
Lay down a hard pack layer
Add sunshine.......
Add minus 13c....
Add 20 cm fresh....
Take away the wind.....
Take away the lifts,crowds,putine,snotty nosed snowplowers and people telling you to slow down every 20 feet,
Add 8 cool folks that know how to ski,two guides who know how to guide, and a guy who knows how to make it looks like he can ski......
Put it all together and you have the best day of my life skiing.....

Thanks P.M
