Snowshoe 1:42:23 3.01 km (34:04 / km) +88m 29:43 / km
ahr:112 max:133
Snowshoeing at Gunstock - looking at track options for potential Ski-O net weekend.
GNA has a chest harness with attached tire behind - dragging that behind me to see how well it smoothed things out - worked very well, but exhausting work. Also grabbed a small sled - put the tire on that for traversing set trails and some of the uphills - much less drag.
Back and forth on if I want to hold something next weekend or not - traveling most of this week, and only got to about 1/4 of the tracks I'd like to have available.
Still amped up from the Craftsbury event - snow cover should still be good, but there is both the mental and physical stress that I always seem to forget about until the final prep time is half gone...

XC Ski - Skate 1:29:05 16.58 km (5:22 / km) +351m 4:52 / km
ahr:131 max:148 shoes: '18 Salomon Equipe RS-192
Inaugural spin out on my new Salomon Equipe RS skis - slightly longer and stiffer than my older Equipe 8s.
Great conditions - full snow cover - some branches and pine cones down. Stiff breeze was not an issue out in the woods, but very noticeable coming up the Cobble powerlines.
Quite a few folks out - all ages.

XC Ski - BackCountry 56:59 3.13 km (18:14 / km) +120m 15:18 / km
ahr:116 max:132 shoes: Peltonen BlueFat BackCountry S
Clunking around in the new deep stuff. Varied between following snowshoe tracks and breaking my own trail - skis kept getting clogged up - knocking them against a tree got some off, but not all of it. Took them off and scraped the now off on tree bark - things sped up considerably then for a bit.

XC Ski - Skate 52:29 10.63 km (4:56 / km) +211m 4:29 / km
shoes: '03 Yellow Fischer Skating
Yeah daylight savings time!! Didn't get away from the house until after 5:30, but still had daylight to ski for over an hour - could have kept going.
Thin and open spots have grown since yesterday, but much of the trails are still fully covered. Felt more energetic than yesterday - took it easy most of the time, with some hills at higher effort and focusing on breathing.
Another 12-15" on the way over the next couple of days - still plenty of good skiing to go.
