8 scintillating and salubrious skiers having a jolly good time!

Discussion:

We were hoping to find good tracks in this warmer weather (around zero degrees all day) and, yes, we did! The first kilometer on this route is never great, and there were lots of needles on the trail, but after we turned the corner, the snow was soft, clean and smooth. Most of us were using V45 or 50 wax, but at least one had v40, and two on skin-skis. No one had any trouble at all. The cloudy day prevented the snow from softening up, and we really flew back on fast tracks. The calorie-counter on the Garmin allowed us to reconvene at Beamers in Canmore for coffee and treats. What a way to end the day!
