Ski

my body hitting the ground during my first time snow skiing. Splash! That is the sound of my body hitting the water over and over again as I am trying to learn how to water ski for the first time. I have recently had the privilege to be able to experience both water skiing and snow skiing. I was able to learn how to water ski for the first time this last summer; I went snow skiing for the first time this winter. Even though they have similar names, they are each unique and different from each…

P. one of these things is skiing. A few ski hills that overlook the water are Mount Bohemia, Indianhead Mountain, and the Porcupine Mountains Ski Area. Indianhead Mountain is a small mountain but if you're looking for a good day on the slopes and a good view of Lake Superior this is a great option. Mount Bohemia is another great ski hill if you're looking for a little backcountry and tree skiing. The Porcupine Mountain ski area is a great kids friendly ski…

The first thing that catches my eye is the mountains. As I sit on the highest point of the hill I am surrounded by mountains. The walk from my dorm is definitely the worst part and most painful part. Although the walk is a leg killer it is the greatest view I might ever experience. Sitting on the bench I have realized that the hill is more than a hill with a bench. This is an escape, it was a place to go to relax, to clear your head, and to just get away from all the chaos. I am the kind of…

Have you ever tried snowboarding? If you have,then great,but if you haven’t,these are some reasons why you should AT LEAST try it.

At Red Scaffold my cousins Gabriel, Josh, Tristan and I ride bikes. Gabriel and I wrap ropes on our back tires to create traction like chains on the rear tires. Consequently, I think the ropes work well on ice and snow, you don’t slide around on the slippery ice and can move well in the snow. My cousin Gabriel and I go through mountainous snow drifts and the ropes help enormously, so we don’t spin out. Last year we wrecked a lot while riding our bikes because the ice was like glass, causing us…

Because it is very fun,interesting, and isn’t able to be experienced by everyone, winter is an amazing season. Winter snow is a very interesting thing to experience. Snow changes peoples moods sometimes for the better or worse. It scares some people because they have a fear of driving in it or of being late because of it, but it also makes some people happy because it is a cool season to get to experience. Winter snow is an interesting thing by how it changes moods but it is also interesting…

On September 4th, 15 years ago, I was born. I was born in Duluth, Minnesota and lived in Superior. After living there for 5 years, I moved to Arizona. I lived in Arizona for 3 months. My family realized the weather was just too hot, so we moved back to Hermantown. I've lived here since. I like living in Hermantown way better than Arizona because I like snow and snowmobiling. Some of my hobbies include lacrosse, snowmobiling, hunting, fishing, and shooting my bow. In the winter, when the…

As the snow slowly melts away, students head back to school. The bustle of hundreds of students and staff under one roof is becoming more familiar. Getting back to the normal routine can be difficult. And saying goodbye to the snow is the worst. Many people enjoy the snow days such as eighth grader Anna Hanus, “I sleep in for a long time and then watch TV or go outside.” The sight of snow excites most everyone and playing in the snow can be fun and dangerous. Just ask eighth grader Delandra…

You may not be inclined to take a winter vacation to a warm weather climate just for a golf outing, or simply unable to get enough time off work. That means, if you’re an avid golfer living in a cold weather region, you’ll need to play your local golf courses during the winter months whenever the weather is pleasant enough to get in a few holes. This means you will have to deal with course conditions caused by winter weather, including applying winter rules to various situations, if doing so…
