The Cabin in the snow

Well we finally made it into the cabin. Last year we tried three times and never made it. I were going to leave on Friday and it was too snowy, then Saturday was just as bad. The weather finally cleared on Sunday and we got on our way. We were just about there when we got a phone call from Dax (our friend that was going to take us in in his snow cat) that said that his machine was busted and he would not be able to get us in. Brian, Camille and I decided that we were going to try going in on snow shoes but by the time we figured it all out it was 4 pm and it was too late to try that day. We got up early Monday morning and were on the mountain by 10. (which was good because it took us 4 hours to get in) Kristian got some snow shoes for Christmas and he loved them. Though he walked up and down the parking lot so often while we were getting ready that he wore him self out and fell asleep on the sled which Brian pulled. It is so peaceful up there in the winter. It always seems as though there is no one around for miles, but in the snow it is tenfold. This picture just does not do it justice but it is as good as I got. Kristian did great until the last half hour (which would not have happened if I had not had to go back to get the keys that I forgot). By the time we got into the cabin we were all toast. Kristian has so much fun at the cabin that it is hard not to have fun with him. He and Camille went out and dug a hole in snow so that you could see out the window. Thanks Camille for going with us so Kristian had someone to play with.
