Pond Skimming at The Canyons

After a snowy start, yesterday turned blue skies and we decided to take everyone and head to the Pond Skimming event at The Canyons. If you haven't seen this event before, it's very fun to watch. People in crazy costumes on snowboards, skis, or telemark skis trying to make it across a freezing cold pond.

The kids loved the people mover and the gondola rides. Jake had a perma-grin on his face on the way up the mountain. Kenn met us there, along with Tyler & Stella. Jake had a good time watching some of the participants in the event. One of our friends Chris dressed up as a ninja on telemark skis. He unfortunately didn't make it past the first few feet of the pond before doing a hard face plant. Stevie just wanted to run around in the snow and pick up other people's poles. We ended the event with some expensive french fries and fry sauce. Kenn and Jake took a little ride on the food tray as well before we hopped back on the gondola for the ride back down the mountain.
