anything could possibly be so immense. The sun catches the snow at the top of the mountain shooting light down into the Valley below. Then my view slides down the mountain, numerous pine trees seem to wrap around the entire mountain like a child in their blanket. This is the moment I realize it is amazing that later today, I am going to be at the top. As I approach the mass of pine trees, I begin to smell the pitch collecting on the freshly fallen snow. I continue climbing mountain now, and the…

with my family or my closest friends in the mountains doing almost any activity out doors would easily describe the most perfect day that I wouldn't trade for anything else. The mountains always manage to keep my attention; in the winter they are white and sparkling, the spring they are green with flowers everywhere, the summer they are leafy and so pleasant, and then when fall arrives and there is every color you can imagine it is so vibrant and mind blowing. No matter the season, regardless of…

running at top speed. I felt fast, careless, and free. I also felt very frigid. As I reached the bottom of the slope, I waited for myself to slow down. I didn’t know how to do that cool thing with my skis where I twist sideways so I stop and kick up snow. I had just finished going down my favorite ski trail, Skycoaster. I go to Hunt Hollow, a ski mountain my dad “works” at. He is part of the ski patrol, so he helps out injured skiers. Also, cheap admission. It was getting late, and I only had…

matter how many layers I put on, frigid air has a way of seeping into my bones. One day I hope to be somewhere warm year-round, where my pale skin can get a taste of hot sunshine everyday. But if this dream ever comes true, I might just vacation in the snow. Every now and then cold can be good. The one thing that would possess me to subject myself to the bitter air is the rejuvenating activity of snowboarding. Despite the thin, cold mountain atmosphere, the slopes teach me something that…

About four years ago when I was eight, my family and I were up in a small town near Lake Tahoe called Strawberry, for winter break. We wanted to go somewhere in the snow for the break. We had a nice cozy cabin bordering a creek with fast running water and sharp rocks. It was so pretty there in Strawberry. We had bought many sleds and snow tools to play with, and we were outside 24/7. The cold breeze on this particular day though…

It’s a beautiful day outside, the first snow of the year finally covered the ground. Chilly crisp cool air blows across the back of my neck and makes me remember why winter is the best season of them all. Chicago winters are unlike the rest; you look all around and all you see is the beautiful white snow everywhere you look. My momma always said, the best way to clear your head is to take a walk, so that's what I do. I leave my house and start to head down the road with no end destination in…

been living for three years, it was warm. Warm enough, that just the day before, I had gone swimming in the pool outside our apartment with my two sons. Stepping off the plane in the Midwest, it was cold, snowing and miserable. My boys had never seen snow in their young lives, and they were not impressed with either of them, loudly crying their objections to the entire situation. Shivering and blue, my mother hustled us into the terminal, and after claiming our baggage, out to her awaiting car.…
