Jesper and I rented a funky little condo in Winter Park so we could ski for 3 days over my birthday weekend. Of course, we brought FBJ along! He liked the stuffed moose hung on the condo wall.

The highest point, the top of the Parsenn Bowl is 12,060 feet in elevation - that's pretty high!
Map of Winter Park/Mary Jane showing the Ski RunsMary Jane is known as the wilder side, which obviously means it Jesper's and my favorite. FBJ liked it too. It's Extremely Colorado!
Me and FBJ at the sign to Mary Jane (photo credit Jesper Kristensen)It was very windy when we skied, so I kept FBJ in my pack; I didn't want him to perish on a mountain top like the first Flat Ben!
FBJ was tucked safely in my pack while I skied (photo credit Megan Ryan)Down at the base, the wind was calm, so I took FBJ out to visit with friends who were skiing with us.
