We discovered a Stargate while skiing in Andorra

Sandra, Felix, and I invited Darren Thomas from LA to ski with us at Arcalis in Andorra this past Saturday. We were determined to show Darren just how amazing it is to ski here. Lake Tahoe? psha, wait until you see Arcalis...

At the crack of dawn, (somewhere around noon) and still slightly bleary eyed, we summoned the courage to don our skiis and head up the mountain.  It was, afterall, a pretty good day (minus the driving snow). 

We skiied, we ate, we admired, we shot video with our mobile phones. 

And then I decided it was time...

It was time to unveil to my unsuspecting friends and colleagues the grandiose, the unbelievable, the spectacular site of the Stargate...yes, the stargate made of oxidized iron perched precariously on the side of the mountain.  I guess nobody ever thought we would find it here, much less ski up to it. 

Here is our approach...

 

Our brave and fearless colleague, Darren Thomas poses beside the Stargate before attempting to be transported to another universe. Or so he tried to make us believe....
