First Turns









We took Oliver skiing during the last week Solitude was open. We had a hook up on some mini (89)cm skis and boots. He seemed into it when he tried them on at home, so we figured at 18 months old, it is never too early or too late to get into it. It was a perfect spring day and cool to be have it be his first experience at the mountain. With a DIN set at .5 he lost a ski on the first lift ride, but we made a quick recovery, and he was such a good sport about it. We only made it through one lap on Moonbeam, but then threw on the pack and he cruised some hot laps off Eagle Express with us, for the rest of our day. In the pack he loved going fast, and would make car noises as we got going, and would laugh when he saw his Momma in front of us. It is fun to ski as a family, and we are really excited for many more seasons together as he really starts to shred and eventually has some little brothers or sisters he can teach. This little guys is so cool and we love him so much!
