AHHHHH, THE AUTOBAHN, A BLAST!

On the 23rd, we went to the Autobahn at Hoodoo ski resort. What a fun place for all ages. It was absolutely gorgeous weather and not a breath of wind.
We went with Ryan and Crystal's family and McKenzie, Alex's aunt.
I'm not sure what Alex liked best--the Autobahn or throwing snowballs at unsuspecting family members.
Payton was just plain adorable in her purple snowsuit.
I personally think the Hoodoo autobahn brochure should have this on the front page.
Grandpa had a great time, but when we got home that afternoon, Jim slept from 4:30pm-5:30 the next morning, when he had to get up and go to radiation. We teased him just a little about his "13-hour afternoon nap".
This is what sold me on this place. You and your tube get pulled up the hill by a rope tow. This is Kevin getting a tow. NO walking up the giant hill. Crystal actually did walk up once and said, "Never Again!"
This is the top of the hill. That is 3 Finger Jack mountains to the left of Kevin's head.
There are both single and double-holed tubes. Payton rode behind Crystal.
Alex and Crystal.
Here's a video and photo finish of Jim and Kevin racing down the hill.
