A few Canmore locals & Rotarians too 😉

Discussion:

Started later 11:00 am to enjoy warmth of -5 C sunshine ☀️.
The Stadium and start of Banff Trail is under a blizzard of blowing snow making machines; diligently improving base for a white start .
After navigating around a couple of snow mounds, we easily found groomed tracks . Easy to ski in tracks , few thin patches , twigs and one pebble poked through ….but so worth it ! Overall : Good snow coverage ; skate skiers seemed very happy and classic skiers too as Meadowview & Banff trackset . Avoid the return via stadium ; difficult navigate all the snow making. Instead we enjoyed the magical crystals of the meadow and beyond . Great start CNC, cheering CP.
