If you are looking to improve your freeride, off-piste and steep skiing/ snowboarding skills, and to meet other like-minded outdoor, snow-loving folks, this is for you!
GRACE - by Wendell Berry
The woods is shining this morning, Red, gold and green, the leaves lie on the ground, or fall, or hang full of light in the air still.
Perfect in its rise and in its fall, it takes the place it has been coming to forever. It has not hastened here, or lagged. See how surely it has sought itself, its roots passing lordly through the earth. See how without confusion it is all that it is, and how flawless its grace is. Running or walking, the way is the same. Be still. Be still.
"He moves your bones, and the way is Clear."
Forever in our hearts, you will be deeply missed.
Love Hilarie, Grant , Hannah and Stephen.
