Before I arrived here, I never would have thought of Korea as having much in the way of snowboarding. However, when you consider that it gets a good amount of snow and has such steep terrain, it makes much more sense. I think my favorite place was Yongpyong for its Rainbow Paradise route, but there are
other South Korean ski resorts that are pretty good, too.

While I let the base's MWR office do all the scheduling, I probably went to a different place each month. Obviously, taking pictures while snowboarding can be difficult...
and rather than put my camera at risk while in motion, I only got a couple of shots at capturing the vibe of the place. A group of us came up for a long weekend and we going from morning until night, even though we could have participated in the night skiing if we weren't exhausted.
