Still smokey outside from the fires in CA. Sunrise is still beautiful. Sipping on my coffee in front of the fireplace. :-)
It warms up fast here in the mountains. Today the ski lifts are open for scenic rides up to the summit of Whitefish Mountain. I have never been on a ski lift as I don't ski. This is a big step for me, I'm a little worried about getting on and off the chairs.
We decided to take the small ski lift down to Base Lodge for lunch and coffee. The guys made sure we were on safe talking to us the entire time where to stand for the chair to catch us in the back of the legs and sit down. We pulled the bar over us. :-) We enjoyed our lunch and sipped coffee watching all the activities going on. We are going to the top of this mountain and after that we are going to go on the Alpine Slide.
We are on the chair lift to the top now and the view is stunning. The views of Flathead Valley and Glacier National Park are amazing.
We watched several bikers take the trek down the mountain. They are brave!
Some views of our ski lift ride back down Whitefish Mountain.
Time to head to the Alpine Slide. We can do this!! The guys in charge gave us instructions on how to start AND STOP THE SLIDE.
We are on the slide and ready to take off. I'm a little nervous as this is my first time doing this also.
Well, it's time for dinner and we are going into town to try out the local BBQ place.
Good Nnight from Whitefish Montana
