the steamboat gondola

We had such fun memories of riding the gondola up to the top of the mountain at Steamboat from last year, that we knew we just HAD to do it again! :)

 loading up!

 pics from inside the gondola -- Carter calls it the "little metal box"

 we hiked around the top of the mountain before lunch...

 then enjoyed our meal on the rooftop deck above where the gondola drops you off... amazing views!

then we headed back down!
