After breakfast, we went right to the top of the burn and down Sneekies in light snow several times on the edge of the Big Burn. It had been groomed and the visibility was better than yesterday. We also did wineskin in the center of the Burn and finished on Shear Bliss of the eastern side of the Burn. Lunch was at Gordon’s (Gwen’s) and consisted of a large bowl of wild game stew. They did not disclose what wild game was used but the flavor was fantastic. We left lunch skiing down Green Cabin taking the new sixpack lift back up to Sam’s Knob. The expert slope, Campground, was a pleasure to ski from the Knob except when I balked at a steep section and almost went into the woods. A quick turn just before disaster allowed me to retain my no “fall record”. The snow bunny cannot make the same claim. After the obligatory soak in the Jacuzzi, we strolled downtown Aspen, including the shops with art and furniture so expensive it is hard to imagine who buys the stuff.
Perhaps Oprha Winfree shops here as she has a place in Aspen. As is our custom, we perused the antique guns, belts, scrimshaw and horse tack including Roy Rogers original saddle at Curious George’s emporium. They predict a blizzard tonight, which hopefully does not extend too far into tomorrow.
