10 reasons why I love Winter Park Ski Resort
My mom (Katie) gifted our family with a few days of skiing up in Winter Park. As far as creating family memories the trip has been fantastic. We’ve snowboarded, ate too much food, played, hit the spa, and had so much fun spending time together. My boys (Carter and Landon) call my mom Grrrrrrrr. Grrrr has watched the boys so that Julie and I can go shred. We’re old now, so we only rode 2 days and just hung out the others.
10 reasons why I love Winter Park Ski Resort:
10. Underground/heated parking for easy loading and unloading the kids and grandma in the cold.
9. Ski-in-ski-out at the Zephyr Mountain Lodge where we are staying.
8. They have a real Starbuck’s at the base.
7. The Winter Park Village has everything you need (food, coffee, shops, rentals, arcade, things for kids, etc)
6. My 3 year old son Carter learned to ski today! (pictures and video coming soon)
5. The weather this week has been perfect.
4. 12 inches of fresh snow in the last 48 hours.
3. The funnest resort I’ve skied since living in Colorado.
2. We had a minor issue with our hotel the Zephyr Mountain Lodge and they took good care of us and made it right.
1. Family time! Great memories with my kids, my wife and my mom.
Sorry for the gushy post, I promise I’ll never do it again.
