Writing Exercise: SCARPA Gea Boot (Imitation Exercise)

In my writing group this week, we did an imitation exercise. We were to describe either a piece of clothing we own or were wearing in the style of the advertising copy in the J. Peterman catalogue. I wrote about my ski boots and decided to refine the piece here. It was a fun exercise and a great way to move my creativity in a new direction.

Writing Exercise: Recalling a Dream

Skiing the M - Stats & More Photos

Yadda, yadda, yadda, Below are few more photos, comments, and stats on our trip.

Skiing the M

(Stats from our day and more photos are here:: https://annvinciguerra.blogspot.com/2018/01/skiing-m-stats.html)

2017-2018 marks my 13^th winter in Bozman, but only the second time I’ve skied the M. Lack of snow at its low elevation and frequent winds make good conditions on the M trail a rare treat. My first attempt was a socked-in, wind-effected mess, and I have always wanted to hit it in good conditions.

Update: A revised version of this story appeared in Outside Bozeman in winter 2018-2019.
