Lauren and I went out for our annual Christmas dinner celebration at Jimmy's restaurant Friday night. Thirteen inches fell in Aspen during the day, and as we made our way back to the car, we noticed our little town was in full Postcard Mode. Thought we'd snap a quick picture for everyone. 
Today was my last day with the pup for two weeks, so I thought I'd make it a special one and take her for a dawn patrol climb and ski up one of the resorts before it opened. At 6AM it was only 4 degrees, so I slapped the coat on Maci and we started the 2,000 foot climb up Tiehack. As you can see, there's a bit of snow on the ground.
That's my girl. When we reach the top, it takes me some time to strip the skins off my skis, tighten my boots, and put on some warmer clothes. Maci, as one might expect, get's a bit impatient.
