Alyeska

Geoff's company paid for a night at the Alyeska resort for the employees and their families this past weekend.

We drove down in the morning and when we left Anchorage it was just starting to flurry. By the time we got to Girdwood it was snowing hard with a good amount of snow already on the ground.

This was our first snow of the season! It was beautiful. It made our hike through the woods so gorgeous.

Thankfully Elijah's coat fits over his cast.

We hiked two and a half miles one way to the hand tram. Which we rode over the river to the other side.

Pulling yourself across the gorge in a little metal cage swinging over 100ft above the rushing creek was a little scary, a lot of fun, and a good workout! 

I told my Geoff i'm never doing that hike without him and his muscles. haha!

We're lucky we made it before they took it down for the winter.

Only two people fit in the tram at a time. I went over with Ethan and Geoff came across with Elijah.

Ethan loved it, Elijah hated it.

There's a short video clip on my facebook and Instagram account. It got deleted off my phone before I could put it on here.

Then we walked another mile before coming out on a road quite a ways away from the hotel so we called one of Geoff's coworkers to come pick us up so we could make it back in time for the company dinner. 

After dinner we took Ethan down to spend some time with his friends at the pool. 

View from our room the next morning.
