The first annual RV ski trip is now history. It was truly delightful with sunshine and mild temps the entire week. All 4 of us returned with no broken bones and great memories. We skied Beaver Creek twice and also Snowmass, Breckinridge,
Vail and Copper. Much thanks to Dave Syvertson for the use of his fabulous large home on top of a mountain @ 9000 ft overlooking i70 and Beaver Creek.
Nick Ahlen had a ski app on his phone that showed us doing 22000 ft of vertical a day with a top speed of 41 mph. That may sound slow to you RVers and it is nowhere near the speed of an Olympic downhiller, but for a 66 yr old I assure you that it was fast enough.
Dan DeBry has some video and pics that I hope he can post on here as I am technologically challenged.
After skiing all day it was cocktails, shooting pool, playing cards and talking about airplanes. It just doesn't get any better than that.

PS Dave promised us that the hot tub will be fixed for next years trip!
