PERFECT POWDER (2)

"Dropping!" I call.

I send a small cliff and come to a halt. I traverse over to a more open area of the run. Excitedly, I spot a tree, make some turns, and spray it with a rooster tail, knowing that my mom would not be happy with me if she were here. As I swerve around the tree, a patch of perfect powder awaits my clean arc, churning up the fluff under my skis. I make some luxurious turns, straight line up to a cat track for a 360, and weave through some beginner skiers on my way to the main lodge.

Uchk. I wish I wasn’t in Nicholas' guitar teacher's front yard, shoe-skiing down a 2-foot high dirt mound.

  1. Great, Jacob! I dug through my garbage and found your edits...

    "Swerving around it, I enter a patch of perfect powder. It awaits my clean arc. The churning under my skis disturbs the fluff..."

    That's the only section that is still unclear to me. This should help. Good job. C
