Conditions Weds Jan 11

20 degrees sweet classic track sunny scrunch scrunch scrunch

It was cooling down (20-->17) when I left the parking lot, about 4:30 p.m.  The ever-so-crisp classic track continues on all trails save Meadow Loop, and it may be extended there as well. It did look as if Meadows had seen a couple  passes of the groomer. Conditions are stunningly good for classic skiing. I was waxed too slow with Extra Blue (or maybe it was Special; why am I so blue?). The skate track is a little soft and slow; the lovely new snow is cold and unconsolidated. The debris is buried.

Today was by far the best classic skiing day I've had at Mac Pass this year.
