Andy and the boys went for the Yurt Fantasy this month. This is the 2nd annual for Andy. They go to the bunchgrass yurt in Logan canyon. The men he goes with have gone to this yurt for 10 years, every year.
Andy was ready to go, had practiced his turns ready to compete with the seasoned. Apparently they made it in just great but this year snow fall was way less to be desired. In fact the trail head was dirt. Pretty disappointing comparing from last year. Last year was incredible snow...digging out the yurt-8feet or so. Anyway they made it, spent the night and geared up for the next three days of skiing. However, on Andy's first trip down, first turn in fact he twisted up crazy and sprained his ankle. Total bummer. He spend the rest of the trip in and close by the yurt. I think he was in pain but I'm not sure if he knew it. They took care of pain through self medication or something like that. He luckily made it out of there, he left to ski down by himself 3 hours before the rest of the boys and they all made it to the car at the same time. He spent some time at home layed up. He did finally get an xray, nothing broken. Next year has got to be better!
