On the ski hill
Christine January 29th, 2010
I promised a ski photo or two from last Sunday. I forgot my backpack so I didn’t want to take the camera on the lift. Can you imagine the horror should I drop it from way up there? I’d never live it down. No sir. Thus, I only got shots this time from the bottom of the hill. By the time I decided I’d had my last run it had started to snow. Not the best photo but this is looking up the hill from Lift 1. Snow conditions so far this year are passable but not great. The skiing was still tons of fun. I am hoping that February will bring the epic snow storm we need. Otherwise it might be a dry summer.
Here is our son Aly (R) riding the lift up. The perspective is screwy but this run is high, narrow and steep. I don’t do that one. It is usually more like a luge.

Skiing is sooooo far out of my world that it is fun to experience it through your eyes Christine. Glad you had a good time. It sounds weird to have you say you’re hoping for a snow storm! (-:
I would be the one at the bottom of the hill holding your camera drinking hot chocolate. Wonderful sky photos.
You can have my share of the snow. I am with Jenny, taking photos from the bottom of the hill is fine by me. How long have you been skiing?
I miss the slopes, Christine. It sure doesn’t look crowded there for a Sunday. Summit County in CO needs a BIG storm, too. Breckenridge is at about 60% snowpack.
It’s pretty there and skiing must be a lot of fun, but I agree with Sandy — you can have my share of the snow too! I would definitely stay at the bottom of the hill.
I only skied once in my lifetime … in the Swiss Alps actually but I have friends who LOVE skiing like YOU seem to. Nifty views of the slopes … the weather looks much too cold for me!
