Super Sunday

Today was basically one of the sweetest days ever. It was a day that we seem to be lucky enough to do regularly here in the Hole in the winter time, but given that it had been about 9 months since the last one of these epics, it was all the more fantastic.

Spent the morning snowmobiling up to Granite Hot Springs. A 10-mile journey next to a partially-frozen river where we spotted a couple coyotes and a wolf on the snowmobile up to the top. Not a ton of snow, but enough to get back to the hot springs and also a bit up near the end of the road to play around on. Always great to take a soak in the hot springs in the middle of a raging blizzard and below zero temps.

Then drove back to the ski hill after dropping off the sled in town and went for a few runs at the Village to round out a perfect day. "Walk On" trams and no lines for powder turns in the afternoon.

Made it all complete with a Swedish dinner at our friends Dan and Ashleigh Walkers house to put a cherry on top of one hell of a great Wyoming Weekend!

We have arrived, Granite Hot Springs here we come!

Soaking in the midst of a blizzard...this is the life

Bundled up again after the soak and warmer than when we arrived

A bit of Trevor's famous tea before the 10 mile snowmobile out

Mmmm...that's nice

Gettin' some

Gotta love the snow angels
