Here’s the view out the window of the Summit House at Keystone as we warmed up with a cup of hot chocolate. The wind chill factor was -11F!

You’re a brave woman to ski. Especially in that cold weather! I’d be the one lounging in the ski lodge, never to leave the place except upon arrival and departure. 😉

Brave or maybe crazy, Carrie! It was COLD out there today! We skied a few more runs after that break and quit for a late lunch. But it’s always fun. Snow is great this year!

That’s funny you’d say that, Kathryn. I was just saying to Peter yesterday that we got to do two of our very favorite sports in totally opposite climates within three weeks of each other! So fun! The great thing about living in Colorado is that we’re only a couple of hour’ drive from some of the World’s best skiing and it’s a passion for both of us. I feel so blessed to be able to do it. I got some good footage on the GoPro so I’m hoping to get a video up on Monday.

Where do you guys like to ski?

My preference is Whistler, BC, but Mt Baker is only 1 hr away and that’s where we go most often. You?

We do a season pass every year and it depends on that (and somewhat on price). Last year we were at Winter Park/Copper Mountain with 6 days at Steamboat. This year, we’re back at Summit County with the three-mountain pass: Breckenridge, Keystone, Arapahoe Basin. It’s all good!

That’s too cold for skiing. The trip up the chair lift had to have been torture.

It was cold on the lifts. We’d warm up with a run and then freeze going back up. After a few of these, we decided to take the gondola!

Good decision!

Ah, memories of skiing. But that temp is way too cold!

It was right on the edge of being too cold, Susan. We quit after lunch, just couldn’t keep our feet warm. But we’re going back out today before heading home and it’s supposed to be warmer.

Yep, it’s about that cold here too, Cathy. But oddly I am not even tempted to go out skiing in it, or much of anything else. I will leave that to braver souls like you. 🙂

Sorry I’m so late to this one, Cathy. This is possibly due to my natural aversion to skiing. I did it once fifteen years ago and hate it forever. And just the idea of subjecting myself to that degree of cold? I’d rather lounge around inside my freezer for warmth. Your picture rekindles my memory of that frozen hell well.

So sorry, V. You may want to skip Movie Monday, then. Or you might enjoy skiing without having to actually do it! Don’t know. I will say that the first time I went skiing, I also hated it! I even made a deal with God that if she got me off the mountain in one piece, I would never do it again. Obviously, I lied…

I guess there’s a benefit to believing in God after all. I suspect I can handle skiing if it’s via your GoPro.
