Top of the Mountain -Alta, Utah 10,500 feet |
My blog inspiration book, Everything I Need To Know I Learned From A Little Golden Book reminds us to, “be daring” and that
is just what you have to do when you are about to ski down a mountain on two
long boards. When the cold weather approaches, bear like hibernation tends to
occur unless you can find some kind of outside interest and skiing is a great
way to enjoy the winter. I have recently added skiing back into my life( see Day 104-Ski Again). However, I have
not been out west to ski in over 10 years so I was ready to tackle the
mountains of Utah for the first time.

Reflection
The nice thing about Utah, is that the resorts are easy to
get to because they are only about 20 minutes from the airport. Also many of
the resorts are located in close
proximity to each other, therefore you can venture to several places during your trip. We went to Brighton, where kids can ski free
and Alta, where the mountain is devoid of snowboarders.
