I LOVE cross country skiing. It's been my favorite athletic endeavor for as long as I can remember. I was lucky to get to spend a snowy Christmas holiday, visiting family in southern Oregon. We stayed in a cabin at Lake of the Woods which was fully frozen over by mid-December. This area has great variety for XC skiing: backcountry, groomed tracks, meadows, frozen lakes, mountain views, and snow covered bridges!

The trail starts off easy and gets more difficult on the west end. Lacking a shuttle,I did an out and back.
