What a way to spend Saturday

Driving is an adventure in the snow

Lesleigh got a quick photo of the truck wheels with chains as we drove by on route up the mountains

It was off to the mountains on Saturday this past weekend to enjoy the fresh powder falling at the ski resorts. We chose to go to Breckenridge because they have had the largest snow falls over the past week, and we were not disappointed in our choice, with about a foot in fresh powder who can ask for more. The drive up was a little slippery but once we were there it was winter wonderland. Lesleigh and I got to go up early and managed to get 9 solid runs in before heading off for lunch. The powder was so deep that in parts we were knee deep on the sides of the groomed areas. Well another awesome experience enjoyed and now safely back in Denver.

65 inch base of pure powder what a paradise to ski
