Please join me for an afternoon (3+ hours, 4-6 miles) of XC skiing on the woodland roads of the water company's beautiful property. The trails, such as they are, aren't professionally groomed
We'll meet at the MDC property entrance opposite Canal Road, at the intersection with Hunter Drive (off Mountain Road in West Hartford 06107). Parking is along the west side of Canal Road; there'll probably be a long line of cars already there so just turn onto Canal, drive down and turn around, park and bring your gear up to the gate.
