The trip leader to Snowbird had a rough time of it last year. First he lost his job, then he lost his camera. Our group of seven were all hard-core skiers who never slowed down for trivial things such as bathroom breaks, lunch, or picture taking. To make up for this visual deficit, we have combed our vast library of trip pictures to show you what Snowbird looked like, if someone had actually taken pictures.

Ever notice how everyone looks alike in ski gear? This could have been at Snowbird. Ten points if you can name the person pictured (hint, a past club president).

If some of us wear too much clothing on the slopes, others wear too little in the hot tub. Every trip has a fun couple who insist on playing with our SnowShark.

It snowed every day we were at Snowbird. The slopes looked a lot like this. White, and mostly downhill.

There are always some interesting local sights to see on any of our ski trips. This looks a lot like the Great Salt Lake, with the Mormon Tabernacle in the background.

One thing we did plenty of at Snowbird was eat. The place had some of the best dinning you will find anywhere. It was necessary to call ahead, however, as the seating was tight.

Our hotel was really nice. It was grand enough to be a palace.

Every ski trip needs a group photo. If someone in our group had a camera, our group would have looked something like this, only smaller, without the canoes, and with lots of snow. The main thing was that the spirit and camaraderie were with us at Snowbird.
