Slope-side Sidekick
This isn’t the greatest pic resolution-wise, but there’s a deer in there. I was sitting down on the snow, ready to record Chris going over some jumps on his snowboard (there was a lot more snow on the actual slope), and this little one was behind me watching the action along with me 🙂
