Poor thing. He was probably hungry from the cold :cold:
What cold? It is still positive here. You have got me dreaming of the ski season. Damn it, now I want it -35 C.
I had a stupid accident in Europe and haven't been really skiing since, only twice here and couldn't overcome my fear.
Some time ago got lost in the mountains while skiing. On top of it fell, lost one mitten and one ski and was injured, no phone with me. A man found me by accident and called for help. After my hand unfroze, I was able to ski back with help, had a 1st degree muscle tear on my hamstring though. Now I miss skiing.
The most scary feeling was that my hand was very painful and despite biting it to prevent it from freezing I wasn't able to move it. Lying there in the snow, I was starting to lose hope. Until another lost skier showed. I was crying there followed by getting dizzy. On the way back the mountain didn't look so beautiful.
I was feeling sick when I got back. I never found out who the man was. Didn't ask him about name, or forgot it, not sure.

Giant, flightless birds wandered Canadian Arctic 50 million years ago - CBC News
More than 50 million years ago, Canada's Arctic was a warm, wet place, home to alligators, giant tortoises and — as it now turns out — giant, flightless birds...
The bird, which scientists believe was as tall as a person, boasted a head the size of a horse's and weighed several hundred pounds, roamed during the steamy Eocene epoch, about 50 million to 53 million years ago, feasting on foliage, nuts, seeds and hard fruit...

The Red Mountain Resort looks amazing! Great lodging conditions + cheap private lessons for skiing and snowboard, cheap lift rental, only issue is getting to BC from other provinces. The comments to this article stated double seat lifts were already occupied, so not much skied dating happened! Thanks, Daniel for telling us abut the Red Mountain Resort! I sure hope to visit it one day! The group lessons are a steal btw. Love winter, cheers.
