For Christmas last year, all Sam asked Santa for was a ski day on a big mountain!
(not that we don't love Sunlight, but it's always fun to get out and discover new places)
So last weekend I took Sam and his favorite ski buddy to Copper Mountain and we had the very best day! Even though the temp was only 8° when we pulled into the parking lot, we had a sunny, blue-sky day and skied hard enough to stay warm. Copper has amazing views, awesome back bowls to drop in to, great terrain overall and was just easy to get to and enjoy. My favorite part was seeing how ready the boys were to explore the mountain... and their favorite part might have been the Woodward terrain park. (Considering the Winter Olympics started the same weekend, they might have been inspired to go a little faster and jump a little higher!) They were SO fun to watch and I think Sam really felt like the whole day was a gift.
