Group Ski Trip to Caberfae Peaks, Michigan

On Friday, my research group and friends took a trip to Michigan for a spot of skiing at Caberfae peaks.

A lamp sprung out of my head as we posed at the top of the mountain. Seriously, a great day out there. Scace, I know what you're on about now! Cheers! (Though I felt as sore the next day as if I'd played three games of rugby!)
