Wow. What a trip! Mr. FSL, myself & 10 other friends hopped on a plane to Salt Lake City, Utah last Sunday. We got in last night, so this post is written by a severely sleepy & jet-lagged blogger, my apologies in advance. We had an amazing week of food, friends, and lots of snow. I even managed to squeeze in a day at the spa (more on that later)!! Today, I’ll share the ski-related stuff.
This is what my ski itinerary looked like for the week:
Day Resort Weather Max Speed Altitude Miles Slope
Mon. Solitude Sunny N/A N/A N/A N/A
Tues. Snowbird Snow/ice 48.9 mph 9,695 ft 9.5 24 degree
Wed. Brighton Snow/Sun 40.3 mph 10,177 ft 12.6 29 degree
Thurs. Brighton Snow 35.6 mph 10,443 ft 18.2 33 degree
Fri. Powder Mtn Sunny 45.6 mph 9,026 ft 7.6 31 degree

How do I know all the stats? I’m psychic. No really. Okay, okay, I have the Ski Tracks App. You turn it on before your first run and it does all the work for you! If you snowboard or ski, this app is pretty interesting. No surprise that Mr. FSL and his friends get a little competitive over it, but I just think it’s cool to see my stats. The app even puts your stats into graphs! I’m a visual learner, so that’s my favorite feature.

Back to the vacation…here are some shots I snapped of the gorgeous surroundings:
On the second ski day, my friend dropped her pole while on the chairlift. Of course it fell down a the craziest part of the mountain. Luckily, her man & Mr. FSL are unbelievable skiers and good guys. While the men were busy skiing down the icy chute of death to recue the pole, we stumbled upon a mountaintop photographer 🙂 . Please feel free to scroll through our ridiculousness…
I’m the incredibly uncool one in the plaid coat laughing like a hyena.
good stuff!!! glad you’re home though!
Your trip looks like it was so much fun! And so beautiful!
Your trip looks like it was a blast! I super jealous of your spa day, too. 😀
So much fun. We got in at midnight, so yesterday was a rough one around room 302…
Love the photo shoot.
I’ve never been skiing so I don’t really understand any of those stats..so you can totally fool me into thinking that you are the next Olympic skier!
The stats are definitely not anything to write home about, lol! I just get excited about iPhone apps 😛
This looks like such a fun trip!
