Ski Trip: Day 4

It’s looks to be a beautiful day. Ahh… the smell of chapstick and ski wax in the morning.

Right here at the base of the mountain, they’re working on a giant new project. Should be completed in 09.

Wanted to make sure and get a shot of the Max Park sign, just for you Dad. 8^)

In order to reach the glory that is Long Shot—8.5 kilometers of pure joy—you must climb up several hundred feet of steep trail. These helpful signs point out the dangers of the failure to remain “in bounds”…

…such as dropping off a cliff such as this.

Upon reaching the summit, you’re greeted with views such as this.

Here’s a shot of our view of the Two Creeks lift while we ate lunch today.

Last photo today shows what it looks like standing 11,715 ft. above sea level at the top of the High Alpine lift. What a view!

  • Tre,

    How marvelous to hear your reports of Snowmass! And we expect in your heart of hearts, you are thanking your precious Lord for this gift. Thanks for the photos and the Max’s Park reference! Looking forward to the personal blow-by-blow account when you get back. Love you…
