Woo

Endless snow covered terrain atop Rabbit Ears Pass all to ourselves this morning!

Cruising with Zorro, Jack & Rudy with snow covered terrain
as far as the eye can see! Woo Hoo!

We did an "out & back" skijor near Dumont Lake at Rabbit Ears to start the morning with Zorro, Jack & Rudy. Of course, you all know what "out & back" leads to :)

kids roll snow angels at our turnaround point.
Talk about social distancing :)

We spent today's outing on snowmobile trails at Rabbit Ears. There was a steady wind blowing all morning which lead to a light layer of wind blown powder over the otherwise frozen snowmobile tracks. Perfect conditions to go for an endless glide with my pals. Come along for a short glimpse into the morning's fun tour:

After doing a fun out & back with Zorro, we handed the fun elder off with Nancy so I could continue on with the kids, Jack & Rudy and get some extra exercise for the youngsters. We turned away from the wide open terrain you saw above with Zorro and headed up into the trees with the kids:

We did an "out & back" with the kids as well. After skijoring up into the trees for a while, it was time to turnaround again. We already rolled snow angels at the turnaround with Zorro, so what else should we do at a turnaround point? Well, Rudy had an idea :)

"WOOOO! We can WOOO instead of stop, drop & roll!" declares Rudy
turning to come wooing back to me.
"Hmmm, I think I prefer 'stop, drop & roll'!" adds happy Jack (Jack is not
a professional woo'er like Rudy ;)

After turning around in the trees, we came back to the wide open terrain where we started the day to meet up with Zorro & Nancy at the trailhead. Check out the following "power speed" shot of Jack & Rudy as we came out of the trees and back to wide open terrain:

Such power! Such speed! These kids are officially skijoring pros!!!

Back with Zorro and time to celebrate another fun day with our 'end of run' pork treats:

"Ready!" declares focused Zorro.
"Us too - what a fun day!" adds cute & smiling Jack & Rudy.

A fun day starting with Zorro and then continuing on to further exercise the endless kids, Jack & Rudy: 7.7 miles traveled with 700 feet of elevation climbed and a top speed of 21 MPH.

2019/2020 Season to Date: 136 days on the trails covering 926.9 miles with 84,300 feet of elevation climbed.
