Wolf Mountain

We tried a new ski hill and the kids ended up liking

it.  The lift was a pain though.  Way to high for the

kids to get on.  I've always had to lift  Sierra on 

because she is so little but Paige and Riley

  jump and hope they get on.  One time

when Paige was behind us in the line, tried

getting on and slipped to the ground and had

to duck so she did not get hit by the lift.  

They seriously need to build it up under the

lift.  They told us they could slow it down but

they did not realize that was not the problem. 

Oh well. 

Owen made good progress with Brandon on 

the magic carpet and the small sloped hill

next to it.  He skied without Brandon and

learned to turn and snow plow.  It is so cute. 

 The video quality is not the best.  You can kind of

tell what Brandon is teaching Owen.  Brandon puts

his hands to one side and Owen copies him with 

his hands and it helps him learn to turn. After

trying a few times Owen said to Brandon, "Dad

I don't have to use my hands".   So cute! 

My girls were pretty fearless.  They wanted me to 

go off the box but I knew better! 

Sierra goes nice and easy over the box but

cruises down the hill after and it makes Brandon

and I nervous.  But she is pretty in control of what

she does.  She knows her limits.  Where as Paige

just goes for it and had some good crashes.  

Paige said she like the feeling of getting air!

She also said by the end of the day that she

wanted to try boarding.  Maybe next year.

Once thing at a time.

Riley  has surprised me skiing.  She really has got

into it and does a pretty good job.  She is still 

scared of the lift hight like me and the really steep

hills but she was daring enough to go on the box

and other jumps.
