Christmas at Mt. Hoodoo

Early this Christmas morning we got up around 7am and got ready for out trip to the Mountain! We drove up to Mt. Hoodoo to go snow tubing!! We arrived around 10am and did about 5 runs. By then it was about 11:30 so we walked over to the Lodge to have lunch. Oh my goodness, two hamburgers, 2 waters, one onion rings and one chili fries cost $26!!! Crazy!! Anyway, we walked back over and ended up doing 4 more runs. It was 2:00 before we knew it. When we arrived that morning the sun was shining and it was gorgeous, we could see all of the surrounding mountains and the ski area as well. By 1:30 the snow had started and became very heavy. The sky got really gray and well we thought it was time to go before we got stuck driving in worse condition than they already were. On the way up there, right before you start on the pass, they require that you have traction tires or chains, so we had chains. You should have seen us putting them on. Ha Ha! I am so glad we left when we did, the pass is under a Severe Winter Storm Warning!! But we had a Blast!!! Can't wait to go again!
What did you do for your Christmas day?
