Conditions: Packed Powder, groomed.
Report: I have to say today was one of the most fund days I have every had on the snow. My son, who turned 8 last week, has advanced just enough to be able to ski confidently on greens and some lower level blues. So today, we headed up to Gunstock, got him on a 2 hour lesson and had a blast! The majority of the day (before and after the lesson), was spent with him up on the Smith Slope and in the Penny Pod. While for the two hours, while he was getting taught, I was able to get some runs in from the top. The best part was the smiles on his face and the love of the sport he has. Proud dad here!
