There's less than one week till my actual nine month post-surgery date, so I promoted myself to "cleared" today. (There's no doc checkup for the full clear - just the date.) It kind of felt like cheating - most of the upper mountain might as well have been groomed.
Several runs on Horseshoe, one on Shadow Canyon (should have stuck to Whale's Tail) to Vertigo, and even a run on King - I expected to be freaked out by the entrance to King, but nope.
True to form so far this season, my brain wasn't a limiting factor - my knee still was. After lunch, my knee was cranky, but I decided to ski Imperial bowl a couple of times. That wasn't so good, so I headed in and had a drink with friends out on the patio of the Quandry.
ANYWAY THE POINT IS SKIING IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
From blues all season to mostly double blacks (yes, easy ones) today. I think I get to pat myself on the back a bit.
