Christmas Eve Celebration @ Winter Park, Colorado

Those are skiers (and snowboarders) with torches going down one of the mountains at the world famous Winter Park ski resort, Colorado. The lit-up words at the bottom is "NOEL". It's extremely hard to tell, but the vehicles covered in multicolored lights are snow plows that actually do a little dance for us half way down the slope.

When the camera turns away toward the side of the slope, I was trying to capture Santa in his cart sliding down the side of the mountain, but there wasn't enough light on him to be caught by my camera. :(

My apologies for the poor quality of the video! You can tell that my camera was having severe issues with shooting a video at night.

This is a blast to participate in! Back in the day, sharing shots with the Gris! Quite a different perception coming down the hill with everyone in front of you!
