What do you do when you lose almost 100 pounds? Well, I have been wanting to do something I’ve NEVER done before. Something that would really show off the progress that I have made. Something fun and new! So, I went Skiing!!
Yes, I have lived in Utah my entire life and I have never been skiing. How is that possible? Well, I’ve always heard that skiing is expensive (and I am so cheap) and then with my weight I never thought it was possible or really even considered trying.
Time to leap out of my comfort zone and try something new. So, I grabbed some friends and my little munchkin and we went and checked out Wolf Mountain Ski Resort last week. Um yeah, I have been missing out!
Now, first things first, before I tell you all about how Amazing Wolf Mountain was and how Wonderful their ski instructors were (yes, we both had lessons – I would HIGHLY recommend it), you should know that Wolf Mountain is totally affordable. In fact, it is an amazing deal when it comes to skiing! Just check out the deal you can get right now!
To score this deal, head on over to Wolf Mountain’s Website.
Wolf Mountain is beautiful! I can’t tell you how fun it was to get out of the smog and gunk and head up to the beautiful mountains for a great day of skiing.
I was so impressed with the instructors up at Wolf Mountain. We bombarded them with a bunch of little kids ages 4-7 and they were amazing. There were tears from many of the kids at first as they weren’t sure about trying something new, but it didn’t take long for all of those tears to turn to smiles.
My little munchkin was CRAZY! She loved it. Well, I will say that she didn’t like walking in the boots, but once they put on the skis, she had a BLAST! She didn’t want to take them off. She would have stayed there for at least another 5 hours.
She was skiing all by herself by the end, I was so proud.
I was just as proud of myself. Skiing is honestly something that I never saw myself doing, EVER! Now I can’t wait to go back. The instructors helped me feel comfortable and I learned quickly. I only fell once and I really felt like I was given the tools to be confident on the slopes. I will be going back for more lessons and with the huge deal they are offering on season passes, I think we will be grabbing those too!
After we went skiing we headed over to the newly remodeled lodge for some yummy lunch. I had a salad (yes, I’m still losing weight – gotta hit that 100 pounds) any my daughter had a pizza. She loved it. See…
Wolf Mountain is the perfect place to take the family. I can’t wait to go back.
You should grab some passes too! Let’s go skiing!
In fact, Wolf Mountain is not only offering the amazing deal above, but they have given me 4 lift tickets to give away to one lucky winner. To enter just fill out the rafflecopter below.

Favorite part is spending some time with family and friends.
It’s so fun and great to go with others.
I love sailing down the hill and the sound of the snowboard in the snow.
Love being able to spend fun quality time with my son
Awesome report, it would be fun to win and check it out!
I would love to take the family skiing!
You look great Becky! So happy for you and all your wonderful new experiences. I am not confident on the hill but I also love stepping out of my comfort zone and trying something new!
First, WAY TO GO BECKY!! You look great! And secondly, I am glad I’m not the only Utahn born here that hasn’t been skiing (or snowboarding) I would like to try too but I always thought it was way expensive too Thanks for the info 🙂
I like that it’s a good form of exercise in winter
xo
We went to Canyons for the first time (for us and the kids) and had a blast! It was so much fun, but those boots hurt!!
How fun for you, Becky!!!! My favorite part of skiing was the life flight ride after getting plowed into by another skiier!! LOL ok, that being said, I do NOT ski anymore, but my hubby and kids do snowboarding/skiing!!! I would love to get my little monsters ski lessons and not break the bank! I will DEFINITELY check out Wolf Mountain for this now!!! Thanks!!!
Goodness, it’s been over 10 years since I’ve done either but I’d love to try it out again and see if I still enjoy it. 🙂
I love being outside and enjoying the fresh air! That, and the exercise. I can use that!
I too have lost almost 100 lbs in the past 2 years and snowboarding is something that I have picked up and totally enjoy!! I love being on the slopes!!
I love snowboarding because it’s easier than skiing and it’s such a thrill in powder:)

Congrats on the losing weight! Keep up the good work.
I love watching my kiddos learn to ski!
We moved to Utah for the skiing. The day we all went skiing together as a family was my husbands dream come true. It’s something we can all do together and I love it!
Our family LOVES wolves!!!
