Ski day 2 for the Rubster

Lora, Ruby and I went back up to Truckee to visit again with the Childress and Ellis families. We had a great day skiing up Mt. Tamarack (9,882ft) near Mt. Rose, NV. Ruby bagged her first peak! The weather was exceptional, nice and warm but not too warm to really mess up the snow. Again, Ruby slept on the ascent and kind of woke up for the ski down.

It was a great day out and a fun ski down. It's crazy how many people we've run into that said they did the same with their babies. One even told me that he would bring booby popscicles with him to give to his girls when they went backcountry skiing. Lucky for Ruby and myself her mother enjoys skiing as much as we do.

I went skiing the following day as well. Much bigger ski down with Greg Speicher and Jim Barrett.
