This is a sample of the 420 pictures I took during the trip. Most of the pictures look like the pictures from last year, but some of these sights still amaze me.

I drove out to Vail leaving Friday morning and going through Las Vegas. Emiko flew out on Tuesday.

The skiing this year was great again. The base was the best in 10 years, and we had 32" of new snow during the week. We had two days of storm skiing, three days of nice winter skiing amd one day of really warm spring skiing. This time of year always gives you a variety of skiing conditions.

We drove back together through Salt Lake City and Northern Nevada. Eastern Nevada was very pretty with a decoration of snow on the mountains. Prettier than I ever remember it being.
