Hittin' the Slopes!

It seemed that if I wanted to see any substantial snow this winter, so far, I had to hit the slopes!
I'm not a skier or snowboarder but living in a mountainous region, I did take advantage of
spending time time on the slopes photographing others who enjoy those outdoor winter sports. 
A benefit was the snow itself--it reassured me that dispite unseasonably warm temperatures, the
season was indeed winter!
