Another day of skiing

I got to do some more skiing up at Mt. Rose Friday. It was a great day. Not too windy at the top (some people like to call it Mt. Blows) and not too cold either. I decided to try one of the double black diamond runs (jackpot was the name) in the chutes area. I wasn't sure what to expect since this would be my first double black diamond run. I kept inching closer and closer to the edge, and I still couldn't see the slope. Eventually, when it was too late to turn back, I could see the slope, and it was definitely the steepest run I've ever been on. Adding another level of difficulty, it was in the shadows which made it hard to see the terrain. Needless to say I made it down in one piece without falling and I got this picture with my camera phone from the bottom.
