Trip Report/Photos
Only 3 participants showed up, which was disappointing given the nearly perfect snow conditions. However, we made the best of it and had a great time skiing the extensive trails in the beautiful and varied private conservation area. A new coating of nearly 1" of powder while we were skiing made everything a proverbial "winter wonderland." A late luch of soup and pizza made for a perfect finale.
