How would the President's Day weekend work for folks to get together for a ski? I am available any of those days that weekend (Feb 19,20, or 21).
What say you all?
Kathio again for a destination?

I'm quite sure that would work for me...my Dallas daughter is visiting in Feb., but we're thinking it is earlier than that. If she was here then I'd love to bring her along...she was a great high school XC skier, but her husband and children are true Texans (cold weather wimps).

Hey! How about the rest of you more-or-less regulars here? Try again or not?

I just dont know. My life is crazy right now. I need to get through the next two weeks or so and then maybe I can commit.

Bumping again. I am still open for any of those three days that weekend. Let's hear what folks are thinking.

Still iffy. Will be hanging with Hazel that long weekend so maybe a trip skiing would be fun.

I'm going to see if my daughter can join me as well (she's 16). Between soccer, a job and a boyfriend, it's unlikley that she'll be there, but you never know.

I'm open any of those 3 days. Willing to carpool with anyone from the cities.

Saturday, Feb 19th, 10:00am, Kathio State Park? What say you all?

Count me in if there is any snow left.

Maybe. Hope so.

I'll watch the conditions and we can decide what to do later this week. It got up to 45 degrees here today- felt great, but not so good for skiing...

I'm thinking our get together is kaput for this year. Continued warm the rest of the week followed by a freeze up. Kathio trails will be unskiable without helmets, elbow and knee pads.
Try again next year... :(

Might this happen this winter?

Not at this rate. If we get a dumping, let's try.

Gut-

Possible dumping coming your way. They haven't put away the groomer have they?

We got about 8". The temps have been at or above freezing. I went out in the backyard yesterday and the snow was sticking to my skis so bad it was like trying to ski on high heels (or so I would imagine). I think the Aboretum in town groomed the trails, but I am waiting for some below freezing temps before I try them. The forecast for this weekend is supposed to be highs in the mid 20's so hope to get out. How has it been this winter in Ely?
