XR vs a T-bar


XR on a T-bar

Today was a better day of skiing, for some reason despite there being just as little snow, the conditions seemed better.

Late in the day we went to one side of the mountain that had a type of ski lift called a T-bar. Its basically a T-shaped bar on the end of a string. Xuanrong (XR) was apprehensive about getting on the lift since normally the lifts we take are chairlifts. Getting on the lift went without a hitch, but later things took a turn for a worse after he yelled to me, "This is fun!". XR keeled over and was being dragged along the snow. He floundered around for some time until he finally managed to sit on the snow being pulled up the rest of the way.

In the words of another witness to his struggle, "that's some dedication."
