All in a day's work

It's hard work helping your parents ski patrol each weekend.  First, Dad took off for Skibowl where he took the morning shift.  Hazel and Mom set out on a winter snowshoe which quickly turned in to just a hike due to snowshoe malfunction.  Hazel didn't seem to care too much- she promptly conked out:

Then, Mom took the afternoon shift and Dad took Hazel skinning up to Silcox Hut and then skied down.  Hazel is missing her sunglasses in this picture because she decided to rip them off her head halfway up:

Afterwards, Dad and Hazel came back to Skibowl to pick Mom up and Hazel got to ride in her perfectly-sized toddler sled.  She also learned the word "GO!"

To finish off the day, Hazel helped Mom and Dad organize all of their skis, skins, snowshoes, packs, boots, poles, and baby:

On the way home, Mom and Hazel took another nap and Dad hammed it up for the camera.  Ski patrolling is hard work!
