The man in all back with the red hat is my older brothers boss, It just so happens that he also went to elementary school with my mom in Redding, California. I’m not quite sure how they connected everything, but it sure is a small, small world 🙂
Steven monitoring us getting on the lift! All excited and ready for our first run
So, I started out skiing when I was in the 5th grade.. Not to brag or anything, but I remember being pretty good at it. A few years later, I made the switch to snowboarding. I’m not great at it, but I can snowboard and get down the hill without killing myself. My Dad was the same story.. always skied and switched to snowboarding. Well since my brother has been working there my Dad has gone to Sundance a few times and has gone back to skiing.
Sooo… thinking I knew what I was doing, I decided to rent some ski’s and try skiing again.. cause seriously? How hard could it be?
It was definitely harder than I thought it would be 🙂
My brother Steven workin’ hard..
There goes Andy!
These next few pictures were taken at the very top of Sundance. It is sooo pretty up there.. from where I was standing, you could see Deer Creek on one side and the other side was a view of Utah Lake and Provo. Behind me is a cute cozy little restaurant. It was pretty dang cold, but it was a really pretty view.. I want to go back up with Andy and Carter in the summer and eat there 🙂 Sounds fun right?
This was our last run of the day.. By the end of the day I was feeling pretty confident in my skiing abilities, so I rode up to the top of the mountain to one of the hardest runs.. Ya, I didn’t know it was one of the hardest. I lost all confidence in my abilities, but I made it down alive. Whew..
Notice the lack of snow on the mountain behind us… how is that for January. Crazy huh?
I really loved going to Sundance, it is a really cute little resort. I am excited to go again, but I’m definitely going to wait until there is more snow. Because of the lack of snow, the snow that was there was really icy, which really helped when I fell multiple times.. awesome right?
No fun snow day would be complete without Krispy Kremes, Hot Chocolate, and McDonald’s.. thats how we finished out the night and it was pure bliss!
