Skate Skiing (Osceola Tug Hill) 2:00:00 [3]
shoes: Salomon Racing Skate 9
Osceola was lame. Tons of snow and very little grooming. The new machine he bought got stuck, then iced up and wouldn't move while out on the trails. A bunch of us turned it up on it's side and sent a kid under to clean it out so Hugh could get it back to the house.
The "38K groomed with no set tracks" posted on the web site was actually about 5K groomed for skating but not re-groomed on Saturday, another 5K only wide enough for classic and about 25K ungroomed. It was an okay workout, but not fun skiing, especially considering the trail fees are twice as much as Byrncliff! At least we were on snow for the first time this year!
