Very nice pictures Dr. Z. Where there other zoner kids besides Alex in those First Tracks pictures?

I think Mark got an email addy from your wife and will be sending you others. We have a bunch that I didn't put up in the gallery. Alisha (I think that was her name) did a great job with them. It was too bad she had off Fri.
Sorry we didn't formally meet.

Yes, too bad Dr. Z, my wife is going to be sending some pics along too. Were you able to take Alex out on the mounatin anywhere ? How did he do ?

Yep, that is him.

Now that I know that he likes it and getting him out on the hill is next ,the helmet is a must. This is getting really expensive.

Be carefull of the monster you create, you then have to feed it.

IceDevil do you ever come up on the weekends? Too bad you did not meet up with Dr. Z, HelmetCam, Knuckledragger and Jon4Snow. You would have a great time with them. Glad to see another set of parents who are initiating their daughter in the sport. My daughter started in First Tracks and is now in Ministars in the Blue level. They tried her in the Purple level recently but she still does not follow directions as well as she should so she will be staying in Blue for the rest of the year. Her instructors though think that she skis on the level of a 10 year old and she is only 4 years old.

This was the first year I was not up on a weekend. I think I need to somehow figure out how to get up there more than 1x a year.

Especially after being there for all that fresh snow last week.

Plus I think my skiing will greatly improve when I get around some better skiers.

The K-zone has skiers of all abilities so I am sure you would find someone to ski with. SkiDork is good about taking beginner/intermediates under his wing and try to teach them how to improve. Also Shortski has been known to try to help out people who are trying to improve especially if they were females.

As much as I would have liked to, I didn't feel that it was safe yet to try the "hangers" as he calls the lift. We did take him over to Snowshed in the area with the handle tow on a Racer Chaser leash setup. It is wide open, very few people and a slightly steeper pitch (or is it gradient

). We pulled him up using the leash then set it up as the chaser on the way down. He was able to get a little more speed and had more time to make turns. Couldn't get him to stop consistently with the "pizza". He likes to turn sideways with both skiis and slide to a stop.

He seemed to really enjoy it and pitched a royal fit after two hours when we said it was time to go in for a break. A sugar waffle made it ok though. I told him when he was a little bigger then we would get on the "hangers".
