Snow!!

This is the first day where we've had snow where I haven't trained. It's rather strange to be sitting inside, watching the snow come down, and not going out to ski. What we need is another really big dump of snow, as it the base is now very hard, thanks to a fair amount of skiing and grooming, as well as recent warm temperatures, so the snow has now refrozen into a giant hard block of ice. If we get that then hopefully the rocks, slag and loose gravel that cover much of the trail will be completely buried, and the skiing will be immaculate. And hopefully Lappe gets more snow for the first Ontario Cup (and my first race) of the season.
