Silver Streaks Nordic Report 1-14-11

Yippeeee! Finally enough snow for xc-skiing. Ten Nordics met this beautiful morning after the bounty of snow yesterday. It was 20°F and the sun was shining brilliantly. With new snow beckoning we decided to ski the South End. We skied Snows Brook and found the snow packed but not groomed. What fun it was to ski in the fresh snow. We headed part way up toward Sloppy Joes, then turned around and descended on Figure Three. When we returned to Snows Brook Trail it had been groomed and we followed the pristine tracks for another round of the same trails. Brice had been up grooming since 2:30 a.m. Thank you. Brice. All smiles, we returned to the Nordic Center via the Pond Loop for lunch and camaraderie. Special thanks to the two elves, Paul and Bob, who help with cleaning up after lunch.

See you on Wednesday of next week.
