In the mountains

Posted on by

This weekend I just so happen to be among one of my favorite things: Mountains. I love to see them, climb them and ski them racing like wildfire down the terrain. There is something so magical about mountains. I will always find them mesmerizing.

Here are some photos from my first day skiing at Copper Mountain in Colorado. You will see that it was a magnificent day with brilliant sun and perfect powdery snow. I embraced every minute of it and let the exhilaration saturate my soul.

This post was written in response to Where’s my Backpack’s travel theme: Mountains. To. See more posts click here.

  3. mrscarmichael – London – Mrs Carmichael is opinionated, quick to judge and occasionally impatient. She also changes her mind. She enjoys reading, the cinema, photography, travel, things that are designed well and synchronised swimming. Her dislikes include maths, weakness, a tardy nature and oaked chardonnay. Mrs Carmichael has a number of very good friends and a few people who don't like her as much as they should. She socialises with both groups regularly. Mrs Carmichael is on the look out for a new hobby.

    Very nice!

    You should go to Norway, Scandinavia: Mountains everywhere. “Heilhornet” mountain would be a challenge to ski down (photo taken this autumn) 🙂 http://thornews.com/2012/10/03/in-honor-of-autumn/

    And best of all: You wouldn’t run into other tourists. We are only 5 mill people in this vast country.
