8th January, 2003

There's been no snow for the past few days (since the last entry, in fact) and the slopes aren't in great condition. We went snow-mobiling today, and it was fantastic fun. We had three 2-person Arctic Cat skidoos, and this shot is what I could see whilst sat behind Swells when he was driving. With two people on the ski-doo, it's very important to lean correctly into the corners, otherwise the whole thing will tip over to the side - you do not want to end up underneath it! We got up to 40 miles an hour on the roads, and probably around 25 whilst on the snowy trails. We're planning on going again later in the month, and will be able to visit different trails on the other side of the valley. Getting above the cloud line and into bright sunshine was spectacular. We have a bunch of very wobbly camera footage to incorporate into the '03 video - look out for it sometime over the summer.
