Vail Ski Resort

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…

So one day I was thinking can I turn my backyard into a ski park? My backyard already has the shape of a ski hill I envisioned using the path to gain speed, stairs for a jump and then a steep drop off to finish of the run. I already made rails out of pvc pipe and had black plastic jumps, all I needed was a team to help with the manual…

Snap! The lonely branches are breaking around me as I tumble down the snowy hill. The dizzier I felt, the more the pain started to hit me. I finally came to a stop and started to cry because it was too painful for me to handle. Now you are probably confused about what is going on. How did I fall and why was I tumbling? Well in order for you to understand the story, we need to start from the beginning. It was a sunny day in Park City, Utah. Fresh snow fell the morning before and it was a perfect…

On a snowy winter's day me and my brother were going snowboarding with my brothers friend. I was wearing big black fluffy snow pants and a big blue snow jacket and a black ski mask, Cody was wearing some big warm snow overalls and a handy down hunting jacket and a thin hat, Don was wearing grey small snow pants and a dark grey snow jacket and a bubble hat. All I could think about was snowboarding.We were all excited to get to the snow hill I didn't even think about my glasses or anything else…

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…

beginning with the chair lift, standing at the top, and the trip down. At the base of the hill, I look up at the immensity before me. With my skis clicked in, my poles in my hand, I glide over the firmly packed snow to the chairlift. People wait anxiously; a portion, like myself, are impatient to complete another run; the rest is apprehensive to ski their first. Battling my way through the vicious horde to the loading…

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…

though, I never seemed to give back or take in the real meaning it beholds. Nature holds many secrets and it takes an individual to investigate to find out. If you do not stop once in awhile, you will never see that opportunity that faces you. My last ski run of the day gave me opportunity to see beauty in the world and showed me that I have someone watching over me. The snow is falling and the clouds cover the sky in grey as if there was a forest fire on the other side of the mountain. The…

that adrenaline rush. My skis pointed straight down the edge and all my mass shifts forward and was off. Avoiding the moguls I swiftly weaved in and out making a powder wave that trailed behind me. Going straight down I speedily zoomed by others down the Mountain with the wind in my face and cold air seeping through the little cracks in my attire I know now that I just finished. The 110 inches of snow in the winter of 2014-2015 was the perfect time to learn how to ski I thought. I was at my…
