We found a new ski area!!

We decided to take a trip up to Mt. Lemmon, the 9,000 foot mountain just 10 miles from downtown Tucson.  In less than 20 miles, you go from a Sonoran desert to pine trees and snow that look just like Breckenridge.  We even found a small ski resort at the top.

The base area

Even a chairlift  

And of course a ski patrol

We decided to try the chairlift (one of three)

This guy seems to like the view

No skiing this year but at least we had this chairlift ride, so Bob is happy.
