Beaver Creek and Martini Ranch
I went snowboarding at Beaver Creek on Saturday. Beaver Creek is just past Vail and the furthest resort on my 5 mountain ski pass. They had gotten a couple of inches of snow. I went down some blue slopes (intermediate) and over some moguls on accident (not the ones in the pic). When there's a lot of powder I'm not as afraid because it doesn't hurt to fall. It feels like falling into a pile of leaves. Here's a picture of one of Beaver Creek's runs (I didn't take it). Also, Beaver Creek is the only resort that hands out warm chocolate chip cookies at the end of the day. Yum! After sitting in a few hours of traffic, I had dinner at Cheesecake Factory and then headed to Martini Ranch to celebrate a friend of a friend's birthday. I tried their chocolate martini, but so far P.F. Chang's has the best.
