Lake Louise finally got its well deserved snow, and it was a busy place.
Temperatures were around minus 10 and I used VR45 kick wax which worked very well on my track skis. Shelly was a little disappointed that she had chosen her 65mm metal edged skis, but they will be great on the Lake O'Hara road. The tracks on the Great Divide are not as deep cut as at the CNC, but they are soft and forgiving!
Barry was glad to learn of the option to start at the O'Hara end, as he had found it difficult to get into the parking lot at the Lake Louise end. Another advantage for me were all the compliments I got from skiers assuming that I was doing the return trip twice!
