Friday Ski - Dec 5

I was skiing this morning, and there is a lovely layer of soft, fresh snow waiting for us on Friday!

Meet at P. 8.
From the raised intersection in Old Chelsea, continue straight for about 1/2 km. You will see P 8 on your right at the first intersection. The road to the right and left will be closed for skiing. It is a big parking lot and there is an outhouse there.

We will ski out-and-back, to the end of this section of road, affectionately called The Doldrums! It is a great place for warming up your ski legs and practicing the style that you have forgotten from last year. Coaching will be available if you ask! ;-)

Because this will be out first ski this year, we will not go to a cabin for lunch. Instead, we will go to Les Saisons in Old Chelsea for coffee after skiing. You will see a two-story, red brick house, on your right, just before the Raised Intersection.

If you want to check for Ski Conditions and Wax of the Day - go to this web-site. They usually post the day's recommended wax after 8:00.

Please let others know if you are coming so car pools can be formed.
