Christmas day snowboarding

Last year we started a tradition of skiing/boarding on Christmas Day. Mom had worked the night before and we needed to keep the house quiet for the day, so we left to ski. And it was great. Mt. Bachelor received 6" of new snow over night and we cruised through powder most of the day, as there was hardly anyone on the mountain. This year, we did it again. We went to HooDoo, a smaller mountain and enjoyed 12" of new snow and no lines. And this year Mom and Vincent went with us, which made it even more fun. It was a great way to spend Christmas doing something we all really enjoyed and we got to do it together. Being 45 minutes from two different mountains makes it even easier, so if you get the chance, I highly recommend it!
