The Top of the Mountain

 Here I am at the top of the Lenawee Lift at Arapahoe Basin.  Much of the skiing here at Arapahoe is well above timberline.  You can see the craggy peaks in the background.  Just after my friend took this picture the wind came up and the blowing snow made visibility  difficult.   No falls today.  All body parts safely in tack.

The view at Arapahoe Basin is spectacular.  Everywhere you look you see mountain peaks.  the summit at Arapahoe is at 13,050 feet.  The lodge is at about 10,000 feet.  It is the They get over 350 inches of snow annually.

 The sun is just coming over the mountain to light up the rest of our day.
