Over mid-winter break, we finally made it out to Alpine Valley together. This year, for whatever reason, has been exceptionally tough for us to find a day that works for all of us or that works with the weather. Evan and I went out in January one evening, but this was the first day we all four went out together. It was an awesome morning on the hills! I'm so glad we got out butts out the door early to enjoy the freshly groomed slopes before the afternoon sun made them more slushy/sticky.
Evan and I had a goal to go down every single hill and ride every lift (which isn't hard to do since there aren't that many at AV, but it was still fun to accomplish). Sean and Scott skipped one hill that was pretty steep and narrow at the top.
We had lunch in the lodge that we packed and brought. Sean enjoyed hot chocolate and Evan picked a cinnamon roll from the cafeteria. When we went back out we let the boys ride up the lift together in front of us. We each picked our favorite run to do before we decided to head out since the snow condition was deteriorating. On the way home we stopped at Kickstand Brewing Company in Commerce to try their beer and enjoyed some half off pizza. It was a fun day!
