Elevation is everything out here! And, my first trip introducing my boys came with the same weather surprises. We got off the train in Flagstaff in July and it was hot! So, I took them to a place I'd had skied as a kid, the Snow Bowl. We got to the top on the chair lift and a sudden snow storm came up. We, along with others in summer attire, waited it out in the Ski Patrol shack wrapped in musty wool blankets. It happens!We felt like a couple of doofuses when we visited Cedar Breaks in June 2018. Only reason I didn't have flip flops on in the snow (like several others we saw) was because I'd worn shoes in case there was a short trail. The only reason we even had a single jacket between us was because we'd left it loose in the car and saw no reason to schlep it into Worldmark St. George. We had no clue that it could be in the 90s in St. George and still be snowing in early June up on that mountain. We spent a few minutes at the thankfully covered ranger station windows, then retraced our steps to the DQ in the town at the bottom of the mountain. We love Utah -- great scenery and DQ's everywhere! So glad you were still able to take your trip, Mary Ann!
