    Breck is amazing! If you made your way to the Imperial Express Super Chair, then you have had the honor of riding on North Americas highest quad chair (12,840 ft) Glad you have ventured that way to visit... despite the altitude sickness :) You know I haven't been to Park City, UT.... I've seen it showcased throughout several different snowboard videos I have, and it looks fun.

    Yes, we skied Breck on our first day. Must have skied about 100 miles that day. I don't remember the names of all the lifts, but we hit a lot of them.

    I thought the highest lifts and ski elevations were over at A-Basin. We did that one too, and could feel the effects of the altitude towards the end of the day. We dogged it off early on that one, around 2 or so. They kept closing lifts due to hight winds, and by 2 the few runs and lifts still open were so crowded that we decided to call for the last run of the day and do the Chinese Downhill back to the base. Still it was a good day all in all.

    Park City is our favorite destination. We have been there 10 times, Banff, Canada 3 times, and twice to Breck. I skied in Alaska when I was in the army, but it was different then. I am planning a Park City ski trip early this year, after Christmas and over New Year's. It's the only time that all the cousins, nieces and nephews are off from scholl so we can all go at the same time. It will be "Hotdog....The Movie" all over again!
