As our restaurant closes and ski season comes to an end I have been looking back on this past winter. We had an amazing ski season with new snow still coming in.
One of my favorite memories of the season was last week when I was blessed to have my father come visit my brother and I, and to go skiing of course! Day one involved warm up cruises down the groomers over at Moonlight Basin. Day two was a bit colder, but the snow that was coming down was great! We decided to go over to Big Sky Resort and ski the bowl. As we got off the Triple Chair Lift and took the traverse across the top, it was hard to see what your next turn was going to be as it was snowing so hard! No problem!! We skied down and went over to Andesite Mountain. One of the many things that are so great about Big Sky Resort is that you can be in some horrendous weather on one part of the mountain and have blue skies and sunshine on another. The last day we saved for the Tram at Big Sky Resort. As we made our way through the line, we couldn’t help but look around and see all of the amazing skiing right at our finger tips, especially if you don’t mind hiking a bit. We finally crammed into the cab and glided up to the top where perfect weather and snow conditions were waiting for us. We stopped and took a few family pictures for our mom and then it was time to make some great turns down Liberty (the best sled hill)!
So as I look back on this and many other great memories this season I am sad to see it end, but very much looking forward to the fishing, hiking, horseback riding, floating, camping and testing for Rainbow Ranch’s new Outpost that is coming in June.
I’ll weigh in on that subject! It has been a great season. I’ve been blessed to spend a number of weekends, evening and days at the Rainbow this winter. The highlight was a family get together that shared at the Bobcat cabin/home! What a treat. Thank you so much for the warm welcome, un-believable meals and fun times! Warm regards, Larry and Heather Stanley and… family and friends that love the little piece of heaven on earth at the Rainbow Ranch!!!
See you this summer for beautiful weddings.
