Going native...where it ain't native

Just a typical ski day in Colorado's Summit County in April...

I have been assured by a knowledgeable source that this may be the most original outfit that the wacky beach at Arapahoe Basin has ever seen...but to me it was just keepin' it real, AfghaniDan skier style.

Even the local sheriff couldn't refuse a request from her seemingly insane "Afghan" guest...

And the womenfolk know to cover up properly...though a burqa would have been more appropriate!

This is all too real...celebrating making it down a double black with a kerchief blowing into my face the entire time.

That does it.  I'm starting the Afghanistan Olympic Ski Team up, despite my own many skiing inadequacies. Someone's gotta do it, right?
