Beware! Be safe!

How do you know which runs you can ski? Resorts use a common ranking system. Green circle = Beginner. Blue square = Intermediate. Black Diamond = Advanced. Double black diamond = Experts only. It can be dangerous to venture down a trail above your ability.

  1. Unfortunately, I am not even safe on the beginner one, I would be the one falling off the ski lift LOL!! Great picture for the theme, Val, looks like you are having some fun!

  2. I'm afraid I would have problems just getting on the lift, too. Wonderful shot for the theme. Scary thought of a beginner hitting that trail.

  4. As someone who gave up skiing almost 40 years ago (I did fall off the T-bar and climbed up the hill in deep snow dragging my skis) I admire skiers who feel at home on skis.

  5. It's so beautiful up there. I do have to confess that I went skiing once in high school and I fell down as soon as I put on the skis and I couldn't get up. That ended my very short skiing career!!

  6. I'd be staying away from that sign! I hope you didn't accidentally find yourself on a double black diamond unless you meant to be there!
