Open, 35° and mostly cloudy. Forecast high of 37°. 1″ new snow, some freezing rain on top. Skate lanes groomed today, classic tracks are skied in. Nice skiing, soft, need maxiglide.
A half inch of snow on the ground overnight and 22º. The ground is slippery and white. It is pretty, but it will make splitting wood miserable. The trails are in good shape and work continues in preparation for winter.
Carry a knapsack. If you overdress you can carry your extra clothes.
When Nordic skiing we all warm up quite a bit. So that makes it a great sport for cold weather (No chairlift). Sweating does happen. A dry shirt to wear for your second lap and/or to wear home is really nice.
