Southwest Was Grounded, We’re Not | Cherokee Six Rescues Family Christmas Ski Vacation
What do you do when Christmas with family and your ski vacation is threatened by a once in a lifetime blizzard, paralyzing the Midwest, shuttering air travel, cancelling flights for days? You go private. But there’s just one catch… you have to fly the plane! Climb inside the cockpit with us for the ride and see how we did it.
We got out ahead of the Blizzard of 2022 and made it to KSUS as our “base of operations” for the week. It gave us the best odds of success to complete the entire planned trip of 10 days, and guaranteed we’d at least celebrate Christmas with family in St Louis. With the plane safely tucked away in a hangar out of the snow, 75 mph wind and bitterly cold temperatures, we rode out the storm. Once the weather cleared, we found our window of opportunity headed for Denver and Copper Mountain!
Along the way, we cover about 30 years of history in our Cherokee time machine as we pass over most of the places we have called home the past 30 years; where I went to school, met my wife, had our first jobs, 2nd jobs, got married, and got my private pilot’s license.
I have a new wing(wo)man and she gets a crash course in the radios and navigation while soaking up the gorgeous views Mother Nature’s handy work had created the previous few days. A quick pit stop in Rooks County, KS for the cheapest fuel around before we are airborne again for a sunset arrival to KAPA and the Rockies. We hop in the waiting rental car and are off to Copper Mountain! We made it! Hopefully we can get back home.
