Is there anything better than snowboarding/skiing in light fresh powder on a beautiful sunny day with your family? Nope. And that's the way it was on Thursday at Solitude--maybe 8-10 inches of soft, fluffy pow at the top and by 11:00a the snow had stopped and the sun was shining brightly on Tim, Zach, Brandon and me. We were the second ones on the lifts and first-tracked a couple of blues before heading to the top, where we found virgin powder nearly everywhere we looked until a well-deserved lunch. In the afternoon we hit the trees and chutes where the snow was still soft and in many places untouched. What a paradise we live in!
Tim was in town for four days of skiing--Alta, Snowbird, Solitude and Grand Basin--and lots of other fun. Craig and Teddy Lopus joined in today and Rebecca, Angelica, Zachary, Brandon, Courtney, Lanee and Sam all hit the slopes for at least one day. Overall, a great time with family and friends. Life is good!
I REALLY wish we could have been there with you guys. The skiing alone makes me envious, the good company even more so.
