Breckenridge, Colorado







































Not living by the slopes as i have done for the past 2 years actually really sucks, ive become one of those people that only goes boarding once or twice a year...boooo...anyway, a few of us from Houston took the 2 hour flight to Denver, and off to Breckenride and Keystone. the first 3 days were very sunny and very warm, but it hadnt snowed in weeks, the last day we had 14 inches overnight, and was absolute bliss in deep deep fluffy powder, so i guess we were pretty lucky to have it all really, sun (i got sunburnt) and new snow. was a great trip, whi9ch almost went sour when i got lost and stuck in the woods off piste, which almost almost resulted in the ski patrol being called out. the problem was i was in trees in very deep snow, i mean up to 4 feet deep. i got stuck as everytime i put my hand down to get up, it sunk right to my shoulder, every time i stood up my legs just sunk to my waist, i have to say i was a little scared at one point, stuck, lost and rapidly getting more and more exhausted...i made it to the bottom eventually, much to the relief of everyone. great trip though, Breckenridge is such a lovely little town
