Skate skiing 50:00 [3]
SPS around 1 p. Never got above 25F today and became windy NW in the middle of the night. Crust was hard but ok most everywhere. Could pass over with very little trace behind & thus pretty effortless. Windy in the open, though openness is what’s needed…open area, clean enough, with settled enough snow but with less wind. The fields have been “diced up” in attempts to reach or clear baseball diamonds, tennis courts etc. Had to take skis off a few times; once stepped across grass.
Met Frank M with wife about to walk their dog. He said “TRT was groomed this morning”. I looked closer & recognized him under the hood. Still nice @ SPS for a change and each time I learn something new about conditions. Could also ski through the reasonably open woods between some of the fields as the crust totally supported everywhere.
