This is Christmas Eve from the top of Mission Ridge. I woke up to a bright clear day and headed out the door for a nice Christmas Eve of skiing. Enjoy the view and there is an open invitation to join me next year. I honestly forgot how close Mission Ridge was to home (less than 15 miles). Conditions were good at the Ridge with new snow on the 22nd and on the 23rd. Sorry no action photos as I was flying solo both days. I was planning on making a trip down Squilchuck on the way home to take a picture of where Peter and I attempted to end the senior year of basketball early on the three ski sleds (reliving our big wheel days) but only succeeded in straining a knee. However the camera ran out of batteries so that will have to wait till next time.

Amazing photo Rob. The white trees are really impressive. Great, clear view of the valley as well. I'll join next time. I miss trips to the ridge.
It was great to see you guys!

Love the picture and love the thought that you got to enjoy one of the great treasures of our beautiful valley. I wish going to mission ridge sounded good to me - fast flight down snowy mountains just doesn't do it anymore. Dad and I will join you next time, however, with out snowshoes....that is if the Papa Bear can shop on the 23rd instead of the 24th.
Gorgeous!!!
