We hadn't played in the snow yet this year so we decided to take a weekend trip and go find some. We stayed in Chelan and drove up to Echo Ridge to check out the tubing hill. It was a blast. Carson was initially scared and would only do half of the hill, but by the end of the day he was keeping up with his sister. Rylee surprised me and was not scared at all. She was going down the fastest hills, looking for ones with bumps so she could "fly."
It was such a cool little area. They had a small skiing hill also with 3 rope tows. Would be a perfect place for the kids to learn to ski. Maybe next year! We'll definitely be back to tube.
It was such a beautiful, sunny day. Lake Chelan is just gorgeous.
After playing in the snow we checked out a couple of wineries. It was "Wine and Chocolate weekend" in Chelan so all the wineries had either fondue or chocolate pairings. So fun!
We had dinner at Wapato Point Cellars after tasting there. The kids were so good! It didn't hurt that the winery had a swing set and old school merry go round they could play on while we wine tasted. We'll definitely be back to that place!
Sunday we spent some time at the park, exploring the beach, throwing rocks and making sailboats out of sticks and leaves.
On our drive back home we took a detour and found our own little sledding hill. It was perfect.
Such a great little winter getaway.
Here are a couple videos of the kids sledding on our private hill.
