Ski at Meadows

We originally wanted to go to ski on the 2nd but we felt kind of lazy so we postponed it. Sunday morning we weren't that much more enthusiastic but we still ended up going. We drove to Mt Hood Meadows, taking an unoptimal route for the first time (kind of wasted 20 min but it won't happen again) and realized the drive was really not bad.

Once there I was surprised by the organization of things, which is quite efficient compared to French ski resorts. You end up buying your pass and renting your gear at the same place, things are pipelined and rather fast, and very conveniently located to take the lifts. It took us probably just 15-20 minutes to get ready. We started at 11 and stopped at 5 and had a great day skiing and trying the various slopes. The resort isn't very big but it's big enough to not get bored (especially that the hardest tracks were closed so we still have a lot to see in further visits).

The landscape was quite nice, with the sun peaking once in a while from under the clouds. Here you can see Mt Adams. You can see the pictures of the happy skiers here.
