So there is a 4 wheel trail that will take you all the way up to Peak 10, today we decided to try it out. 

Here's the promo video from Allied Sports.  The snow during the competition was CRAZY!! And let me tell you, it's still falling.


Louie Vito won the comp and a nice chunk of change! Here's the podium shot.

Here's a video from Alli Sports, where you can actually get a feel for the slope style course.

So Pete told me that in my 3 seasons now I've never been 3 days in a row.  I have now accomplished that goal.  I'll try to condense my three days to one post for easier reading.

Day 1 - Monday, Breckenridge
So we got to see a couple of the snow designs from the Snowflake Festival. 


Day 2 - Tuesday, Breckenridge
Got off to a little bit of a slow start.  But we made it out the door.  Our timing actually worked perfect because we passed the snow cats at the top of a trail.   Next time by we got to take the wide open freshly groomed trail. 


Day 3 - Wednesday, Keystone
We headed over to Keystone so I could hit up the HR office and talk to the lady that Pete knows but when we got there she was gone.  We headed over to the 'recruiter' who gave me the same run around that you get if they don't know who you are.  I did get to prove to Pete how crappy their site is because when I went to log in the sign in link just re-loads the home page.  Nice work right!  Whoever paid for that site is a fool.  But whatever!  We headed over to the employee center, cause Pete had some questions, so I had a chance to take a pic of the first layer that I want.  We need to find out if Pete gets any discounts on the products they sell there.  Would have been good to ask then but it's not that important. 

Then it was finally time to head up the hill.  Here is the lift we skied, first time for me.  I liked parking in this area.  You don't have to walk thru the village and there is no line.

We made it over to where the snow fort is.  I'm not sure if it was this close to being finished this time last year.

We called it a day and started heading home.  Pete pointed this road out to me, what the people who work at Keystone call the 'Million Dollar Road'.  Wanna know why?  Cause it's heated!  Can you believe that in Colorado?!?  Anyway, I tried to show as best I can the snow around it but not on it.

So after our first adventure we headed down to town to get Alex's pass and head up the Gondola.  The 4 person chair was packed so we opted for Chair 5 that took us to an Easy/Green Trail.  I know when I started snowboarding getting off the lift was the scariest thing that I had to do.  My mistake was that the 2 person chair we were on didn't detach and therefore didn't slow down for you to get off.  I tried to get a picture of the hill you ski down.  You start at that hut and thankfully from the storm there was a pile of powder to fall into when you get down that slope.

Alex grabbed a shot of us before we headed down for our first run.  I'm not sure why but every pic I've taken lately I look like crap.  I think I might have been talking when this was taken. 

And here is Alex in Pete's helmet and Jacket.  We tried to improvise and it worked out. 

We looked like twins in out denim snowboard pants.  She was doing so good, flying down the mountain with no fear but has decided that pads are a good idea.  And I'm glad we had a spare helmet cause I really don't think you realize how much you would slam your head with out it.  Until the next day that is when your neck is killing you.
