I think this worked.... I haven't done a trip recap, but the short version is the skiing conditions were less than ideal, but still incredibly AWESOME compared to the East Coast conditions we are used to skiing. My sis fell ill early on and spent most of the trip in bed with the flu. It snowed all day the first day and on the second day we had about 10 inches of fresh powder to ski in - that was an adjustment, to say the least... I couldn't believe how hard it was to control your skis. I was falling pretty often as I tried to ski the powder. Adam played it safe and kept to the groomed trails. The wind was just insane! The video I took below (from the doorway of the lodge) shows how crazy it was!
My cold subsided just in time for me to enjoy two full days of skiing with everyone else. The skiing was fabulous, we even got to enjoy 5 inches of fresh-fallen snow on Saturday. And, much to our relief, Nicole's on-again off-agin boyfriend wasn't as annoying to have around as we had feared.... although, I'm surprised my sister managed to find someone that actually takes longer to get ready than she does!!! very annoying.....
