We went to West Yellowstone for their kids & snow weekend and we had a blast! They had a welcome center where the kids made snow crowns and then we headed out to go on mini snowmobiles. The kids loved riding around the snow track. We checked out snow shoes and we all did that for the first time. It was pretty much exactly like hiking, but in the snow. Vic and I loved it, but the kids didn't like all the hard work! It was beautiful with light snow falling down all around us.
One of the coolest things was having the dog sleigh pull the kids around.
We also put them all in ice skates for their 2nd time. They improved a lot since last year where they couldn't even stand up on their own. This year they skated around with a hockey stick and even tried to do turns. At night they had a sledding party with the snowmobiles, hot chocolate, ice skating, & roasting marshmallows. It was a blast & we stayed out way longer than we thought we would!
On day 2 we went to the Bear & Wolf Discovery center and it was pouring down wet snow so we dressed for snow play and went out! The kids crafted pine cones and books for at least an hour in the visitor center. We then had to drive through the scariest whiteout roads to get home for the superbowl!
