There are trainers available on hourly basis whom one can hire to learn basics of ski and snowboarding.
Its not easy but we really enjoyed the snowboarding at the beginners level slope .
we learnt and did skiing and snowboarding for three hours till 5 pm in the evening. In between we kept coming indoors to warm up ourselves

Really chill winter evening.


The icy slopes at the phoenix resort looked so beautiful at night.
After all that fun we went to center plaza nearby. There we ate some noodles and then played bowling for some time.

Happy new year .
On the way home all we could see was white blanket of snow all around on the roads, houses , mountains and trees.
Seeing so much of snow all around we could not resist ourselves and got down road side to play with some snow again.
