The low side of learning
Posted by The Ski Utah Yeti on January 20, 2012It’s important to me that you know that my learning to ski experience was not all ribbons and roses… at all. At my fifth lesson, I hit my skiing low. I was doing really well on the bunny slope. Too well, I guess. So my instructor asked if I wanted to take on something a little more challenging.

Summer at Canyons and Utah resorts!
Posted by Jodi Saeland on August 1, 2011OK, this is a ski blog...but I'm going to say I LOVE summer in the Wasatch. The smells, the flowers, the hiking, the moose. Yes, lots of wildlife spotting here. And...the crowds are down. I'm just going to come out and say it...I love hiking and I'm a much better hiker than skier. I take pride in the 4-10 mile hikes I can do and still be standing at the end. With that said...my kids have become (or are forced) to be great hikers as well.
