Just before lunch Frank and I were standing on the far side of the cat track at the bottom of the Hobacks watching the rest of the crew ski down next to the trees. Suddenly two mooses (a cow and her calf) burst out of the woods and ran down the mountain directly towards me and Frank. If they ran across the cat track they would have crushed us, but instead they turned left when they got to the traverse and ran down the trail. Whew!
After lunch we were skiing down Laramie Bowl, when Mimi pointed out a little white ermine on the giant rock that divides the trail. This was a much less nerve wracking encounter with nature.
Tonight we are going to Mimi and Frank's house for Chinese hot pot (huoguo ) to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
