XC skiing (classic) 1:20:00 [2] 12.0 km (6:40 / km)
shoes: Rossi R-Skin
Canmore Nordic Centre with Carbon, Tom and Heather. A nice loop, out on Banff and Bow, back on Meadowview.
Fun to xc ski again, haven't done it in a while. Toe was pretty good with it.
All 4 of us were on skin skis. Mine clearly had the best glide on the downhills.... which suggests that the operator wasn't as great, as we were all holding about the same pace on the flats.

Increasing set from E2 to MAP
8 min sets of sweet spot, then at E4/threshold watts. 2 min rest between sets. Did the last couple in ergo / target watts mode.
I figured I'd be tired from the ski trip but managed to hang on and have a good workout. Legs were really tired after.

Day 5
Just Revy and I. Did two runs in the morning. Even a little more snow today. Explored a cool run to ski a nice gully. Some of the storm snow was sluffing more easily today.
On one pitch where I went ahead, one of my turns kicked up a cloud of powder that blocked my view as I headed to a roll off. At the last second I got a glimpse of a fallen tree across the slope below. I couldn't see but knew I had to keep my tips up to stay on top of this monster. When I could see it again, I could tell I wasn't going to ski over it but would at last be able to stop with my skis pressed up against it rather than have my tips dive under it. My skis hit it and I safely came to a hard stop right against it but then I could feel the whole tree and I starting to move down the slope. When all the powder settled, I could see that I had only shoved the tree a little down the slope, not taken it for the longer ride that it felt like. Both skis ejected at the heel and one also released at the toe.
Climbed over the fallen tree and carried on.
Back to the hut after our second run to pack up the rest of our overnight gear. Skiing down with the heavier pack wasn't too bad, we actually had an enjoyable run with good turns (Revy picked a nice route for skiing with the heavy packs) and were down to the snowmobile sooner than I expected. A smooth and comfortable snowmobile ride got us to the truck and back to town early enough to make the drive back to Canmore easy.
A great ski trip. Snow conditions seemed much better than usual, but this is a month later than our usual dates. Maybe we should stick with this.
