I'm Faster Than You--Winter Park CO

Scott has absolutely loved having so many opportunities to mountain bike this Summer. I've loved it for him too. He is just happy when he gets time outside and can test his physical limits when racing down a mountain. He has been able to mountain bike a couple times a week at Canyons Resort. He also planned a great trip to ride several beautiful mountain bike resorts all the way up to Canada. Unfortunately, that trip just didn't work out so we made a quick trip to Winter Park, Colorado to satisfy the end of season biking itch. The drive was lovely. We stopped here and there, but mostly just enjoyed the landscape. The resort was wonderful. We stayed in a condo at the resort so we could walk to everything. Scott's friend, Kelly, and his family joined us for the trip. It was great to be there with Brenda and her boys. Scott, Kelly, and the two older boys mountain biked every day while we explored the resort, napped, played, and hot tubbed. I even rode a couple of times down the trails. I surprised myself by making it from top to bottom in one piece and with confidence to do it again. It was a great trip for our little family. Let's go again next year!

We came across Dinosaur, CO, on our drive.

We stopped at Brooklyn's Pizzeria in Steamboat Springs. Yummy!

The resort had a little playground with the Bear and a train.

Brenda, Watson, Jake, and I hiked up the trails next to the lifts. It was beautiful.

We did the Alpine Slide, it was ten times longer than Snowbird's.

Watson guided us through a maze.

Watson and Dad perfected their mini golf game.

A little ziplining.

Giant Jenga, giant Scrabble, giant Connect 4, giant Chess, giant Checkers! The resort had them all!
