Weekend of Solo Skiing

Friday - Feb 9 - Skiing 7 km

Skied the Bell High loop. Clear night with no moon made it fairly dark. Snow not so good on the main trails as it was very packed however the back trail was quite good. This trail is farthest from the houses and parking lots, so the dog walkers are not present. Decided to cut across the soccer field at Bell to experience some real snow. This was fun as the snow was deep due to drifting. Too bad the woods are not like this.

Saturday - Feb 10 - Skiing 7 km

Skied the loop from Asticou that I did with Rob a couple weeks ago. Was a nice evening run at around -12 or so. Did not see a soul.

Sunday - Feb 11 - Skiing 7 km

Went skiing in the afternoon around the Mer Bleue loop. Again tried to ski off trail, but the snow is too thin and I got hung up on a field of raspberry canes. How can they get 3 meters of snow in some areas in New York state while we only get a couple cm? Nice sunny warm day and there were lots of people on the trail.
