We were divided into 3 groups with about 10 skiers in each. The helicopter Bell 212 which carried up to 13 people flew all day nonstop to pick up and drop off skiers. We all had a wonderful time skiing. I had to take off early because my lungs and skills did not measure up. But I skied enough. It was a dream came true.

I met a few people there. They were nice people. Most notable was Laura Ogden who was in my group and I shared dinner table with her once (the third night). I have no idea who she is because I don’t keep up with the celebrities in skiing at all. But it turns that she owns a number world and US championships, including the US Free Style Extreme Skiing Women’s championship. Although we rode the helicopter together, Laura Ogden skied off on different trails with her two professional photographers. So I never had the honor to witness the Champion skiing. Not only she wins various championships in skiing, she is a enthusiastic and nice person. AND she is beautiful. Yep, God is not always fair.
