Birthday Fun

Zorro and Jack gave me exactly what a wanted for my birthday this morning: a fast & fun skijor on Baldy Mountain!
All smiles as Zorro and Jack take me to the finish of our morning skijor. Wheeee!
Before hooking up Jack for the finish you see above, Zorro first towed me up & down Baldy Mountain. It was fast, packed and wide down low:
Zoom we go behind flying Zorro!
It was narrow and deep up high. Barely wide enough for Zorro and I to fit :)
Fun Zorro towing in a narrow single track with "taller than Z" snow walls on each side!
Finally, we had beautiful views up high. How better to celebrate a view than to roll a snow angel while taking in the views :)
Silly Zorro rolling a snow angel while I paused to take in the nice view of the snow covered
peaks and ski runs of Breckenridge Ski Resort across the valley.
Back to the most fun: Zorro loves to uncork the skijor engine and really open up the throttle on the wide and packed trails lower on Baldy. Come along as we zoom, zoom, zoom along...

What a great birthday present: a great run up/down Baldy with Zorro and then a fun finish to the day with Jack and Zorro: 6.2 miles traveled with 900 feet of elevation climbed and a top speed of 22 MPH.

2017/2018 Season to Date: 19 days on the trails covering 126.9 miles with 11,800 feet of elevation climbed.
