It’s the last day of March and that means ski season is over for most, and winding down for the rest. I have said it so many times: I just had the best winter of my life spent at home because I got to ski so much. Thanks Dad! We started the ski season off… Continue reading That’s a Wrap on Ski Season

What it’s really like to ski during the COVID-19 pandemic
I want to preface this post by saying I was super nervous to ski during the pandemic. It turned out to be a lovely time. It’s winter and there’s only one good thing that comes with that: ski (and snowboard) season. My awesome dad (also known as Rippin’ Russ while on the mountain) planned a… Continue reading What it’s really like to ski during the COVID-19 pandemic
Steamboat, Colorado: Good Eats

I am staying at… Continue reading Steamboat, Colorado Day 1: A Serious Resort
Frisco, Colorado Day 2: Skiing in a Snow Globe
Day two of skiing gave some of the best conditions I’ve had (I definitely said that last year). Similarly to my second day of skiing at Park City, I thoroughly enjoyed my second day in Colorado at Keystone Mountain.
