Blue skies and lots of smiles—the 2024 Winter Western ski trip to Schweitzer Mountain Resort in Idaho went off without a hitch with six wonderful days of skiing and great Gang camaraderie!
For the most part, we stayed up on the mountain, taking full advantage of the fantastic conditions, weather and opportunity to explore a new resort, including finding the oldest tree on the mountain, the Schweitzer Grandfather Tree which is hundreds of years old. We met for happy hours and dinner every night and swapped stories of our day’s adventures. One night, we trekked down to the local hangout, The St. Bernard, for dinner and merriment.
On Saturday, Pete C, Robert R, and Meredith P took a snowmobile tour of the mountain, while others went into Sandpoint to shop, browse the art galleries and dine. Truly devoted skiers used the opportunity to have an additional day of skiing.
Keep an eye out for next winter’s Western trip. See you in 2025!
