Looks like a beginner ran into this sign though!

Last weekend, Carl and I went up with friends to ski at Alpine Meadows in Lake Tahoe. I hadn’t been skiing in 6 years or so, and as it turns out, I feel much safer on skis than on a snowboard. Maybe my need for feeling safe is why I’m not “shredding” yet. Oh well. I don’t care if I’m a wimp. 

The views of Lake Tahoe were amazing… another reason I was so slow to ski down the mountain. I kept stopping to enjoy the views.

We also had a great day of snow shoeing and spontaneous sledding after Allie & Chad created a luge run for us. And…a piggyback while snow shoeing is much tougher than it looks.
