March 3, 2016 - Ski in Lake Louis Ski Resort

With the lift tickets we had, we can go to either Lake Louis Ski Resort or Sunshine Village Ski Resort. There were some discussion regarding which one we want to go first.  With Ben's ski lesson booked on today was at Lake Louis Ski Resort, we decided to venture out to Lake Louis Ski Resort first.  Paul, Sophia, Jerry, Fei and Tony decided to get there earlier, therefore, they were the 1st group went there and the others rode the next shuttle bus.

With no ski trip in 2015, we all felt sort of uneasy first.  But once we got on the slope, everything came back without missing a beat.

We took the Glacier Express chair to the Whitehorn Bistro area and then ski down from Wiwaxy and Pine Cone Way trails.  Wiwaxy is wider and straighter, Pine Cone Way is more winding and narrow. There are both green trails and have different sceneries. Then, we got on Upper Juniper, Lower Juniper, Home Run, and Grizzly Gully which are blue trails.

 

Ben is a first timer skier.  He booked a lesson with a ski instructor and got good experience on the slope.  He fell and hurt his shoulder a little bit in the morning, but still tried to ski a couple more runs in the afternoon with positive feeling of skiing.  We all admire his courage of trying a new sport.

June, Lisa and John are non-skiers and they tagged along to enjoy the wonderful snow scene and experience the winter in this snow country.   

We found a Chinese restaurant for dinner.  We were the only guests there and the food was not very desirable.
