HAPPY NEW YEAR

We had a real low key New Year's Celebration this year.  Ike and Brenda came over for a hike and a great dinner.  Was in bed early, but that is not unusual for us.  New years day we had our annual sledding party even if we did not have much snow.  Moved the sledding over to the road down the little canyon and that turned out to be a good move.  The riders could take a runner sled about a half mile down the road before gravity gives up.  On the 3rd we took Carl and his son Andrew up to Lost Trail where Andrew took a snow board lesson and Carl went skiing with us while he had his lesson.  There has not been any snow for a couple of weeks so the skiing was just okay.  Groomed runs only.  Had a good time though.

Carl on top enjoying the view. Notice how the wind has blown most of the snow off the ridge over to the out of bounds area which is closed for that reason.

Carl and Connie making some nice synchronized turns.
