I always love skiing with Sydney. But, it’s rare that we have the opportunity to have a true chick day. Usually, at least one of our significant others tags along 
We headed up to Berthoud. It was a good day. The first day of backcountry corn I’ve had all season, and it’s towards the end of April! We arrived relatively early in the morning and could tell that conditions were still a bit crusty. So we headed up to No Name where I thought the snow would have enough sun to soften the snow.
Sydney likes crazy poses
Then we saw this guy. Hi birdie!
It was a bluebird day and the views were amazing.

And the skiing doesn’t get much better. Spring corn on No Name! Nice!
Sydney slays the snow:
It was a great run!
We followed the drainage all the way back to the road where we planned on hitching a ride back to the top of the pass. But, the little traffic that travels the pass this time of year is not so friendly to hitch hikers. After several let-downs, we were about to give up. We had our skis on our shoulders and we were going to walk the road to the top of the pass. But, never fear, [url=http://burritoamigo.net/]Burrito Amigo[/url] is here. Yep, that’s right. The burrito guy arrived just in time, along with his friend. They too were going skiing on the pass. Not only did they give us a ride to the top, but they gave us free burritos! Score! May I might add, they were pretty yummy as well
After that, Sydney and I made our way over to Loveland for an afternoon of lift-served laps. That too was fun.
Did I mention it was a great day out? Thanks, Sydney, for helping make it a great day!
