For about 7-8 years now, we’ve been doing some variation on a family ski trip out west to Breckenridge, CO. It is always fun and this year was no exception. What made the trip more notable was the fact that we had to do something else last year (florida) because Tiff was pregnant and because this year we brought Cora along (1st grandchild). It certainly introduces an interesting dynamic into any family trip, but skiing is even more tricky. Why? because she can’t ski with us, someone has to stay in the hotel with her all day. I think we hit a good rotation for the week and everyone got to ski as much as they wanted and hang out in the house with Cora some too…
The other notable thing this year was the weather. Though cold, it was one of the first times we had clear skies all the way up to the summit of the Imperial Lift (highest lift in North America). From this lift you can climb another 160 vertical feet to the summit of the mountain and arrive at 12,998ft. Below are some pictures from the trip including some from the summit views we had at 13000ft.
