Green Belt

Trails Skied: 45, 46, Glide Wax: universal, Grip Wax: green

A beauty of a morning at Pinegrove. Yesterday's 15 cms of new snow has rejuvenated the trails. Looks like a fair number of skiers were out Sunday laying tracks. All that was needed was a few passes from a few skiers this morning to pack down the few cms that fell overnight. The going was a bit slow due to the loose snow but I was soon flying on my return trip around the 45, 46 loop. Blue skies, little wind...doesn't get better than this...
