I went snowboarding for the first time ever on Saturday. I went up to Bear Creek because it is close to me, and the perfect place to learn. During the day the conditions were good, but the first three times I went down I could not stop falling. Once the sun went down it started turing to ice, and man did it hurt when I fell. I am sure people were laughing at me, lol. Towards the end of the day, a girl who said she was a snowboard instructor there, gave me some tips, which was awesome of her. It really helped me out a lot, and the next few times down I started doing a lot better. So thank you, who ever you were...that was really nice of you. So all in all I had an awesome time, and I loved the mountain there and being so close I am probably going to go again on Saturday. I look forward to it.
