Snowshoeing in Iron Canyon

Our friends, Jeff and Courtney, came up to Park City this weekend. We went on an incredible snowshoe trek today. The sun was shining, our layers were light, and we may have even gotten a little tan.

Skiing in the Backcountry

Andy did some backcountry skiing on Saturday with another teacher from our school. I don't have the right gear for backcountry skiing right now, so I guess I know what I'll be buying soon. I'd also need to get all of the safety gear, too. Anyways, Andy did an awesome excursion up to Kessler Peak in Big Cottonwood Canyon. Enjoy the photos...it was a gorgeous day.

New Years in Brighton

We spent New Year's Eve at the cabin in Brighton. With hopes of doing some night skiing, we hauled our skis, boots, poles and other miscellaneous gear along with us. With our snow gear on we started walking the 200 yards to the ski resort. Hmmm...that's funny. There aren't any cars in the parking lot. The runs are not lit up. Much to our dismay, Brighton did not have night skiing last night. Bummer. It was still a fun night. Some friends drove up from SLC to bring in the new year with us.

Andy was very proud of his snow bench and cooler he made from sawing through the snow. Really, he used a saw to carve out the snow.

We wish everyone a very happy, healthy new year. We look forward to the many more adventures that await us.
