We definitely weren't lacking for precipitation.
There was snow. There was rain. There was hail. There was slush.
Made for a terrible trip going there…all ten hours of it.

Chipmunk rolled his first ever snowball, which soon became a snow man.

Bear got in about a day and a half of skiing…in the slush and hail, I might add. Apparently it wasn't enough for her because on the morning of the day we were leaving she quietly asked, "Can we go skiing again today?"

But really, after all the poor weather the scenery was just breathtaking.

And that was why we went to the snow...
