Mom and Son Trip to Spirit Mountain

Canyon and Mom had a special Mom/Son trip to Spirt Mountain in Duluth on March 3rd and 4th with 6 other pairs of Moms and Sons. These are all pals from hockey. We carpooled to Duluth, making a special stop for the "World Famous" Uncle Toby's Caramel Rolls.


We enjoyed 2 fun (but chilly) days of snowboarding (Canyon) and skiing (Mom). One of our favorite runs was appropriately named Gandy Dancer. The days shifted between times with the Moms and kids together and with the kids going off on their own. Mom was still a bit nervous with the kids alone on the chair lift. But no one was injured (except for a snowboard that went all the way down the mountain on its own when Canyon accidentally let go of it).

We stayed at a hotel that had an indoor water park. Mostly, the boys swam and the Moms chatted but Canyon and I enjoyed several water slides together.


Before we headed home, we checked out the one of only 4 alpine coasters in the country. Like an alpine slide but elevated on a roller coaster track. Really fun adventure and fun trip!
