The Chariot in Snow



On Saturday, December 22nd, we took Cruz out in his Chariot, but with the skies attached to the bottom. Shawn and I took turns pulling him up Temple Quarry. My mom joined us and we all had a blast cross country skiing. Cruz slept or looked out his little window at the snowy pine trees.

We had so much fun that on Sunday afternoon/evening we tried it again. This time we chose steeper terrain, so instead of our Cross Country skies we put skins on our tele gear and skinned up Mt. Aire. We made it about 3 miles and then got a lift on our friends snow cat. We saw a HUGE Elk a few minutes after we jumped in the snow cat. We joined our friends for some soup and then headed down. It was fun skiing downhill behind Cruz in the Chariot. Shawn was zipping him around corners. It was such a peaceful and bright night out due to the full moon.
