Good winter ski day. Seventeen km open. Lovely skiing. Cold, squeaky snow.

Open at 9 am. The temperature at 7 am is 9º. The forecast high is 11º. At 7 am the wind is not blowing.

Gretchen took the photo above from her house Monday night, the 19th, about 7 pm. Aurora Borealis putting on a show. The man made light on the right is the door to the barn, and the man made light on the left is our red house. (Just for perspective.)

About the skiing. The skiing will be really good again today. The forecast looks like good skiing for a number of days.

Low trails, 10 km open for skating and classic, nice track in. Dick reported yesterday Ian switched the track in the Peregrine from the right to the left side. Let me know how it skis.

Chickadee, 7 km, a lovely, beautiful ski. While you are out there you feel as if you are the only skier in the woods.

And a note on the Loon and Middle and Upper Blue Jay. We wish they were open and skiable too. They all three have bigger humps and bumps and rocks and wet spots. They need snow. More than 2 to 4 inches at a time. And we need to not lose the snow that has fallen. We haven’t given up on them, they simply do not have enough snow.
