Gotta love Snowbird

Without a doubt, we are a Snowbird-lovin' family. I don't think my parents knew, back in 1980 when they bought their timeshare at the Iron Blosam, how much I would attach myself to this place, and eventually my husband and children also. We have lots and lots of Snowbird memories.

This was our first week at the Cliff Lodge. It was a very nice place and we had a great time. It isn't as 'homey' feeling as the Iron Blosam, it has a little more of a cosmopolitan air about it. But it was lots of fun.

It is just so beautiful up in those mountains. Doug took some really pretty photos of some of the flowers:






When the staff came up they did The Wall climb.

This wall is on the side of the Cliff Lodge and is 6 or 7 stories tall (I can't remember).

This was Abbie's first attempt to climb this wall

She didn't get real high, but that is okay!

Our receptionist, Tiffani

One of our hygienists, Trilby, who made it pretty far up

Jake, feeling a little more confident this year

Confident enough to make it to the top this time!

Not to be left out of the fun, Doug gave it a try this year

Even though we don't have a photo, he did make it to the top, also.

On the second day we bought day passes for the activities at the Fun Center which included the bungee tramp, the zip rider, the tram, the Peruvian lift, the alpine slide and the mechanical bull.

Jake, staying connected

Doug, taking an emergency phone call. Such a good dentist, always on call-even on vacation...

And so ends another great vacation at Snowbird.
