Open at 9 am. The temperature at 6:30 am is 0º. The forecast high is 14º. We only had a quick half inch of new snow late yesterday.
The photo above is from yesterday.
Sunny today, the most pleasant temperature will be 12/1 o’clock.
Low trails are skiing so well. Dick told me they may be skiing the best ever. The track is really nice. The skating is fabulous.
The upper trails are packed and tracked with an inch or two of snow on top.
This is an old photo. But every once in a while, it is so appropriate I did it out again.
And once in a while I repeat the Mary Oliver peon, “How I go Into The Woods.”
“Ordinarily, I go to the woods alone, with not a single
friend, for they are all smilers and talkers and therefore
unsuitable.
I don’t really want to be witnessed talking to the catbirds
or hugging the old black oak tree. I have my way of
praying, as you no doubt have yours.
Besides, when I am alone I can become invisible. I can sit
on the top of a dune as motionless as an uprise of weeds,
until the foxes run by unconcerned. I can hear the almost
unhearable sound of the roses singing.
If you have ever gone to the woods with me, I must love
you very much.”
