A trip to Snowbird.

Altair wanted to take Skyler hiking yesterday because on Saturday he had asked to go hiking.  My sister joined us, and off we went up the canyon in the truck!  There was machinery, flowers, snow, food, and an all around good time.
Heading up in the tram.

Looking out of the tram to the East.

Twinky little pond.

Passing the half way point and the other tram car.
Looking to the West at the valley below.

North view.

Someone found an excavator!

Wildflowers and the Big Mountain bike trail.
Niner looking at the flowers.

Headed to the snow field. 
"Brrrr!"

Assistance getting him off of the snow.
Looking North from the snow field.

Panoramic view from the snow.

Auntie Karen got to carry him for a while.  (He rode on my shoulders most of the way up and down to the snow.)

A rescue dog in training.
Looking out on the way back down.

Watching the red tram go up.  He was really enthralled by the tram.  He even got an inflatable tram to take home... :)

Watching the hoist machinery.  We went back to watch it so many times I lost count!

Celebrating that no one died or was injured!  We ordered a pizza to enjoy on the terrace.

Walking toward what we thought was the parking lot.  Note the blue sign!  Damn!

Nearing the playground.  No pics of said playground but we managed to get him back to the truck.
Special thanks to my sister for joining us, buying the pizza, and probably burning more of her Sunday than she wanted. Skyler had a great time but no nap yesterday.  Sigh...
