That looks so awesome! I have a friend who just came back from an annual Alaska trip (which sadly I've never attended) and can only imagine how great it was.
I try to pretend this stuff is inaccessible to me so that I don't feel bad about missing out. I've been really fortunate to have some amazing resort days this season but I really need to make an effort to book something like this. Now that my kids are getting bigger and better, maybe we'll be able to have a whole family trip in a few years.
In skiing-related news, the ten plus feet of new snow extended our season (almost doubling the seasonal snowfall) but wasn't the amazing endless powder that many expected. The extremely high winds really packed the snow in. The late season base is great and it's done wonders for sierra snowpack (we are above normal and staved off drought for another year) but not the best skiing. With highs expected to hit the 60's in the next week, we may be making an abrupt transition to spring skiing.
