| Skate at the new olympic trails at Callaghan Valley. Wow! Impressive site. Very similar to the ski trails in Canmore. Dense network of trails, lots and lots of trails, well groomed, great place. Started at the main cross country stadium and skied around on the hill side east of the stadium. Then down to the ski jumps, watched some kids do the mini-jump (still pretty big), crashing left and right. Continued south on some trails called Around the World. Great view to the Tusk. Had a quick lunch and then did the Biathlon loops, which were the highlight of the day! Absolutely fabulous, with lots of smaller hills and sharp corners. Finally I did the recreational loop around the creek at the bottom of the valley.
Was looking at the forest to see if we could make an orienteering map. Looks pretty thick... but for sure a sprint map has to be made. And then obviously, have to organize ski-O next year.

Knee hurting a bit... |
