This series of photos were taken on Sunday, Mar. 19th on Upper Exhibition. I realize that these photos are a few days old, but I just had to share. I do not know who the skier is, but I want to thank their friends for getting my attention while I was on the Sterling Lift. I was able to catch the action due to their heads-up!
