Snowboarding: Mammoth Mountain
And so the winter sports begin! My crew finally took a crack at snowboarding, and it was a huge success! Chris and the three kids each took a lesson and carved some snow on Mammoth Mountain over New Years weekend. We had the most wonderful experience…and well, everyone loved it!

It is claimed by the National Park Service to be “the largest and most complex post-Ice Age basaltic lava field in the continental United States.” We had a fabulous time exploring the lava fields and adventuring through the wild caves…
Hike to Lower Palisades Lake
Not far from Swan Valley in Eastern Idaho, is the Palisades Creek. This creek is currently a crushing force of water that moves faster than most rivers I have eyed. Hiking upstream provides a gorgeous four mile hike which will lead you straight to Lower Palisades Lake…
