Skiing at Northstar with Oscar. We have started doing more blacks! Did about 13,500 vertical feet. The hill really cleared out at the day went on as there were storm warnings for that night. We are now spoiled for weekday skiing with no lines. You can get a lot of runs in fairly efficiently! Conveniently, Carol lives close to many ski hills on the epic pass. Afterwards, we made a Boston cream pie birthday cake. :)

Skiing at Heavenly. A beautiful day to see the Lake Tahoe. It was cool as the ski resort was between state lines so you kept going in between California and Nevada. Did around 14,800 vertical feet. Mostly doing easier stuff today as Oscar and I were feeling a little tired.

Driving day from Salt Lake City to Truckee.

Skiing at Park City. The hill was super empty because Sundance is on, so everyone was watching the movies. A very pretty day and a huge hill to explore. Oscar and I did our first blacks on our own. :)

Full day of skiing at Solitude and day 2 of a lesson with my mom's favourite instructor. This was so helpful. I feel like I ski quite differently now and am way more stable and confident then I was before. Still lots to learn of course. We did a super steep black (my legs were shaking from nerves when we stopped halfway down haha), but good to know that I can do it in control (albeit slowly).
