Salt Lake City ski trip ski trip (December 2005):
Our 11th annual Salt Lake City ski trip was another highly successful outing. For the second time on these ski trips Mother Nature again provided us four successive day of excellent weather (i.e., no storms) with COLD temperatures, blue skies and wonderful visibility. Trip leader Darlene Little did a superb job in organizing the show. We stayed at the Red Lion Hotel in downtown Salt Lake City and the transportation to and from the slopes via a private bus was convenient and trouble-free. Our sixteen skiers hit four different ski areas: Alta, Solitude, Deer Valley, and Park City. All these areas had good snow since there had been a "dump" two days before our arrival.
