Spring Break 2013 Ski pics

Matt went on his mission trip to inner-city Memphis while the other 4 of us went to ski in Colorado. 

Rebecca has a very nice friend (Kim) who allowed us to stay with her and Bec for the week.  Her condo was right near Beaver Creek ski resort.  Very nice... like Vail.

The boys went skiing with Jeff and I went snow shoeing while they were skiing.  The first day they ski'd with Bec and Kim.

I'll create another post that includes the videos Jeff took of them skiing.  This one will include only pics.

 Getting out to CO requires driving through the mind-numbing state of KS.  Windy KS.  Straight, boring, monotonous KS.  The only thing interesting in that state was the enormous amount of windmills that have been erected.  It looked like an army of them!

We arrived at the condo and it was beginning to snow!

And now for some Snow shoeing pics:

this was my fantastic view as I hiked all over Mccoy Park!

 

Yes, the picture below is an OUTHOUSE!
There wasn't any running water on top of the mountain :(

I hiked up and down this hill... got off the beaten path!

The pic below is a close-up of the one above.  Do you see the C shaped path in the center of the pic?

That is where the World Cup is held... they pour water on it to freeze it so it's good and slick... yikes!

Beautiful sky against the Aspen trees!

The day I hiked for 5 straight hours, I had this sandwich with me...
BEST SANDWICH EVER! 

 

Our time is through in Colorado!  Good bye slopes!
