A little after 4pm, we took off our boards and nestled into a snowbank...

...so that Grant could call into a radio show to chat about an opinion piece of his that had recently been published about Canadians and the Queen of England!. Hard at work on a Monday!

Snowboarding down a steep incline with a foot of powder is like a barely-controlled fall through the clouds.

So steep! Here's a picture of Grant getting ready to drop in from up above.

Still more mountain to go! The mountain is so big and white that it can be really disorientating at times!

The mountain is so steep that when you're facing uphill you only have to bend your knees slightly to be kneeling on the mountain!

Awesome.

Walking across, then up and over.

Last run of the day.

Later that afternoon it was snowing near the top of the mountain again.

Riding through the trees in deep snow is sort of awesomely terrifying. You have to try to keep your speed up so you don't sink and get stuck, but you also don't want to go too fast, because, duh, trees.

...and there was another foot or so of fresh snow!

Later that afternoon, we met up with Matt!

About to ride over the edge of the world! I love this photo.
