When we got up in the morning it was sunny and fairly warm and we were excited to spend one last day on the slopes before heading home. I actually bought sunscreen which was a joke because we skied almost the whole day in the shade. By now we were pros at getting ready and everything went smoothly and we were quickly on the slopes. We rode up the lift and took a family picture at the top because it was so beautiful.
The little ones were tired as was I and we decided to regroup with hot chocolate. (One thing to realize when skiing with kids is that a break and hot chocolate fixes everything.) Ali and Cameron got in a couple more runs. The highlight of the day for Ali was her dad saying that she skis almost like an expert.
After a break we put our skis back on and met Cameron and Ali at the bottom of another lift that only went half way up the mountain. This run provided us with exactly the length of skiing that all parties were interested in. The girls skied great and we all had fun together on the run. After a few runs we stopped for lunch in the sun. Snowbird was kind enough to refill our thermos and so we all had more hot chocolate.
After lunch a new area was open for the first time called Baby Thunder. We went over to that area and found a fresh stash of powder that no one had skied on yet that winter. There were not very many people over there yet and we enjoyed some of the best powder of the trip. The runs were fun and we had a great time skiing them together.
The highlight of the trip for Ashling was skiing in the fresh powder. Here is a video of her skiing it.
We skied all afternoon over there until we were ready to go. It was a great ski trip and we will be excited to do it again!
