Judging by these photos that my brother scanned our parents were quite the skiiers - Probably Mount Baker near Seattle in the mid to early 1960s. It's kind of funny that these days I am doing the same sort of thing here in Kodiak but on Pyramid and Heitman instead of Mount Baker and Ranier. I can't wait to carry Nora up the mountain and see what she makes of the snow, and ski back down. I guess the apple does not fall too far from the tree. The two kids pictured are my brother Dicky and sister Polly. Amazing how much the old downhill gear looks like old school tele gear. People often think I'm ski and snow obsessed; now I can tell them that it is not my fault. It is in my DNA. Patrick
