MArch 30, 2012 Tram Trip at Snowbird

 After leaving Antelope Island we arrived at Snowbird Ski Resort just in time to get the last tram ride up the mountain to 11,000 feet and SNOW!
 Here are a couple of scenes on the mountain.  Note the building way down the mountain here.
 From the top, this is the scene showing the Salt Lake Valley.
 This little person went down the mountain without any ski poles.  He was more couragous than I would be!
 This shows a tram coming up with the skii patrol on it.  It was the last one up for the day.
 This person looks like the way I would go down the mountain using a snow plow stance to limit the speed!
 This is the other side of the mountain top.  Peri is standing by a chair lift.
 This scene is from that same side of the mountain.
 and another scene.
 This side shows where the snowboarders like a route down the mountain.  It seems really steep to me!
 This is the warming hut on top of the mountain.  Note the scenery!
 These mountains are incredible.
 Peri is by the window in the warming hut.
 Here Peri is standing by one of the signs showing routes down the mountain.
 This snowboarder apparently changed his mind about that steep route I told you about earlier!  Smart guy!
 This is the docking station for the end of the tram ride.  It shows that this is Hidden Peak and 11000 feet.
 These skiers are heading down the popular route from the top.
 Another snow boarder goes down.
 This is a skier with a good color jacket!  (Won't get lost if he goes off the route)
 This last sene is from the tram coming back down the mountain.
