Author's Most Memorable Moment
Learning to ski and going out for the first time at Snowshoe Mountain Resort was amazing. The teachers were great and really made the learning fun. But being able to do the nighttime skiing with my friends really made the trip for me, as it seemed so special to be skiing under the stars.
