Talked about coal to reluctant kids today while my coworker plots to hit the canyons on the UT/CO border all weekend until Monday. Jealousy.

It was fantastic today. I got up on Humphrey, skipped Agassiz due to time limits, and had great conditions. I'll post a TR with pics when I get the chance. The snow is fantastic.

Cold up here, but supposed to be in the 40s tomorrow. Some folks from ABC are supposed to meet me (not listed as a meetup) for xc ski lesson tomorrow, but it is going to be awfully warm. Mushy, sticky snow. I will bring the silicon spray along. High of 46 is too warm. We'll keep to the thick woods, stay out of the sunny areas. We had a snowstorm a couple nights ago, and there is still a LOT of snow up there, at least 4 feet at Pole Knoll, I think.

I imagine it will be a crankin' weekend on the Salt as well. I was invited on a private raft trip last weekend, but couldn't make it. Dang it. Life is short, ya know?

It was a gorgeous day! :D I took a work friend to Gateway trailhead and we walked around the surrounding area. Brought a little picnic and went back home. There were lots and lots of people there today -- plenty of kids too - out of school for President's day.

I got busy and didn't get out skiing or biking today! It was warm weather even up here! I think it may have almost made it to 50 degrees in the sun!

Spent the afternoon getting a new computer and a camera. Now when I can figure out these new toys I'll be able to do some tracks and photos. But I'm going out this morning so all is not lost.

I know, it's painful. It's shaping up to be another great afternoon of weather down here today, too!!

I went XC skiing on Sunday. It was the best I've felt in months.

I can't believe I went for a short bike ride at noon. The reason I can't believe it is because when I got done with my afternoon bus run at 4 it had become very cold and windy! Hope we get some snow, because our xc ski areas are becoming icy now.
