| no partners | | Skiing at Pole Knoll can be a bit iffy. It was iffy yesterday, Nov 30, when I went up after work. I started out at about 4:45 p.m. and skied for an hour. The snow was not quite deep enough in places--I kept scraping on things. Since this particular storm, which came in on Wed., was very cold the snow conditions were otherwise pretty good. Not sticky at all, pretty much all powder, so when the going was good and I wasn't scraping on things I got to gliding along pretty well. There were no other ski tracks, and but I did see two sets of human footprints, and lots of elk and deer tracks. It is nice to be in the snowy woods alone on a cold, quiet evening. I know the area pretty well, but stuck to an easy loop.
I had heard there would be more snow up at Green's Peak, and thought I'd go there this evening, but I seem to have caught a cold! The weather is starting to warm up, and this snow will be mostly gone soon. Yesterday morning at sunrise it was 0 degrees on my porch in Eagar. This morning it was 12 degrees. It will probably be in the balmy 20s by tomorrow morning! |
