I was the first person to ski off of the chairlift
that day, arriving at the summit of Whitetale
Mountain. It was the type of day when the clouds
seemed to blanket the sky, leaving no clue that
the sun, with its powerful light, even existed
anymore. It was not snowing, but judging by the
damp, musty, stale scent in the air, I realized it
would be only a short time before the white flakes
overtook the mountain. As I readied myself to make
the first run, I took a moment to appreciate my
