My wife, son, and I came to Butte Montana, located on the continental divide, to visit our families for vacation. We currently live in north eastern South Dakota. We were looking forward to several days of hiking and mountain biking while on vacation here. It started snowing nice, big, fluffy fakes on the afternoon of May 21 and we woke up to over 4'' on the 22nd. Since we could not go mountain biking in 70 degree weather as we had a couple days before, a morning of sledding and snowman building was in order.
My wife, son, and I had to borrow boots and gloves from my family for the activities since we had not expected to go sledding in May. Luckily I never leave home without my Technical Fleece jacket no matter what the weather is like. While packing for our vacation I told my wife that I should bring my Subzero jacket just in case it got cold in Montana, but she convinced me I wouldn't need it.
My wife, son, mom, dad, and nephew headed to a local park to do some sledding. Back at my parents house after sledding, the snow conditions were perfect for a snowman. We all a great time. Sledding and snowman building in May will sure will make for good memories of a unique vacation experience.
