March 21
Bright and early we took off for Mount Norquay. We met up with Liang and Ken over there and while they went off to do skiing I put on my crampons and went for it. Since I am not aware of any service roads on this hill I used ski runs for my walk up. Some places it was scary steep. It is amazing that with skis strapped to my feet I would not thin twice about the steepness of some of those runs but being perched there with crampons on I could not stop thinking that if my crampons become undone I’d be tumbling all the way down like a human ball. Well, it was beautiful day out and on top of that I did make it all the way up to the top. I met up with Limin and others there took some pictures, had a bite to eat. By 3:30 pm it was time to start heading back home, Tian had to work at 5 pm, and of course we were a bit late. (Click here to see the pictures).
