Most epic 3 days EVER!
I have been on many, many class trips before but this had to be the most epic! At the start of the year, my class was finding it hard to work together and look out for our peers, But this trip brought out the best in all of us. Skiing is a difficult sport to learn especially since you fall over and over, but my class didn't just leave that person to get up themselves, they would go over and help. It was so cool to see my class working together.
Usually, I don't like travelling on through the pass, but the car trip turned out to be hilarious, as we covered just about every topic from Brothers to flattened bunnies. Even the hike up the mountain was fun, as we took 2 walkie-talkies up the mountain. A few people were so excited to see snow and went crazy throwing snowballs every minute. Calder through so many snowballs and they all went down my back. A bit later on Calder was waiting for some people to catch up, so I went up and dumped a massive chunk of snow over his head, and it all got stuck in his sunglasses.
The first day of skiing was a little hard for me as, all my friends were either way up the top of temple or at the bottom learning to ski. So I had nobody to learn new skills off, that was until on the second day when I took a leap of confidence and tried to go to the very top of temple. Unfortunately, on 1 part of the tow rope I didn't see a rock and I face planted into a patch of rushers. It was hilarious just laying upside down in a patch of rushers.
The instructor did say " Temple basin is really hard to learn to ski, but if you can ski here, you can ski anywhere!" I may have fallen over so many times, but I got up and tried again just as many. Going skiing was the most EPIC time EVER!
