Dirk, good idea.
who has access to a little ATV with the broom on
the front,? they are used for sidewalks all over the place, we'd miss the work
out but be skiing hours sooner. If you know of someone, we can rent it, I have a
trailer or can use someones pickup.

making
I know we have not been out on the area trails skiing, bumping into our ski
friends. So I am getting desperate to get a skiable loop going. Last night a
few of us skied on the Elver pond with pretty good snow conditions. Yuriy and
I were talking that if we don't get any snow this weekend we should shovel a
loop. Therefore, it is time to purpose a good old
fashion MadNorSki trail making party.
Come on out to the Elver ponds to build a snow covered loop. It is kinda
like breaking bread around the dinner table. This timely tradition is
built into the training plan of the top European skiers. So all those
folks that want to get out an ski, come on out Monday afternoon
(the 20th) from 4:30 - ??? (provided we don't get more snow this
weekend) to help shovel a loop. Bring a shovel and get an upper
body workout in (helps with that double pole). Oh yeah don't forget the
classic skis for later.
I just looked at the long term forecast for
the Madison area. Looks like we are going to have temps in the teens to low
20s now through the end of next week. So the fruits of our labor should last a
while.
