The Girls at Crystal Mountain

It was spring break last year and the end of snowboarding season was slowly creeping up. I usually go home and work on all of my breaks from school but this spring break my mom decided to fly me to Utah to spend a few days riding with my brother at Snowbird. This meant I wouldn’t be working during the break so I decided to try and get in as many days of snowboarding as possible.

I started my break by flying down to Salt Lake City and riding three days at Snowbird. I flew back home during the middle of the week. The following day I drove a few hours up to Stevens Pass to ride with some snowboard friends from WSU. The Saturday before heading back to school I decided to take two of my best girl friends (Clarissa and Misti) up to Crystal for the day. Neither had been snowboarding before.

Clarissa got a board, boots and bindings for Christmas and hadn’t got to use them yet so she was stoked. Misti had grown up skiing but always wanted to try snowboarding so I let her use all of my old gear. I usually ride with all guys or mostly guys so I was excited to spend a day on the mountain with two of my best girl friends.
