Snowshoeing

The other event of the 3 day weekend (besides skiing) was snowshoeing! Becca, Lindsey, Tenley, Dave and I all went up to Aspen Grove. We decided to take the trail marked for snowshoeing up this hill that looked pretty hike-able. So we started out all determined to make it to the top and excited to be in the snow. Of course we didn't make it very far before we had to have a snowshoeing race. So Dave videotaped us 4 racing in our snowshoes, falling all over each other to make it to the finish line. I won! Ya! That's only because the other 3 tripped each other while I barely escaped the dog pile! hehehe...

After exerting all of that energy, we decided to try for the top to get a good view. Lindsey was our leader and plowed a nice path for the rest of us to follow up the steep mountainous-hill. It was hilarious to watch from behind Lindsey and Becca trying to get up the hills and falling to their stomach, sliding down the trail they had just made. We got to the dense part of the brush and were really having problems trying to find our way through the shrubs and sticks and trees. So, sadly, we gave up and went back down to go take pictures and play in the snow. I love these types of trips where all you do is laugh the whole time! Fun fun!
