Melchsee-Frutt was such a big hit with our family on our first visit this Winter, we decided to make it our last visit this Winter!
Kim and Katelyn took to the sledge runs while Aaron and Zach went across the lake and up to the highest slopes. Then, we joined up at the end of the day to travel down the sledge run together in the slush.
The warm weather is bringing an early end to ski season this year, but we’ve been blessed with amazing views of God’s creation and plenty of laughs and exercise this year. Great memories.

Last trip. Bittersweet I’m sure.. Looks like you all enjoyed yourselves!
A little, but I’m sure we’ll get out and about on American slopes more now that we’re experienced Alpine skiers and sledgers 🙂
We’ll make the most of every last opportunity here.
