We took the boys to Teton Village for our first ski outing of the season Saturday. The beginner lift, Teewinot, offers a $10 adult pass and the kids ski for free. The real bonus is that they allow baby backpacks on the chair. It's a speedy quad, taking you to the top in less than 5 minutes.
The first time down took 35 minutes and a lot of coaching and coaxing. The second time down took about 1.5 minutes! And that's how the rest of the day went. Five minutes in line, five minutes up, 1.5 minutes down.
Don't worry, Monte's hat wasn't on sideways all day. We straightened it out and tied it on a little tighter. He was a real trooper and even started yelling "YAY!" on the downhill stretches.
Boyd surprised me with much more strength and stamina this year. He really wanted to try going solo, so I let him out from between my skis for a few seconds. Then I really had to work to catch him as he hasn't figured out how to "snow plow."
And Tyler? Well, he just plain enjoyed himself.
