Hooking up little Jack with Zorro and I for our "50-100 yard Jack Dash" to finish yesterday's 9.4 mile skijor outing.

Come along to watch yesterday's Jack Dash to finish our outing. Wheeee!

You might notice I am snowplowing quite a bit in the prior video. Why, you ask? Well, I could say because the trail is pretty steep and I want to be under control (that is partly correct). Or, I could say because I want to keep our speed at a level good for young Jack (that is partly correct). Or, I could reveal the truth - there is a gate with a super narrow (and icy) side entrance at the end of the trail. Both my skijor partners saw nothing wrong with approaching and going through this narrow opening at full speed (and then hitting the dirt road on the other side of the gate). Well, the human would not have survived going such speeds through the gate! Thus the snowplowing :)

| Gate at the end of the trail. Doesn't look like Zorro or Jack have any intention of slowing to go through gently, does it!!!!! Snowplow to save the human! |

| Great view of Flying Zorro! Great view of perfect trail conditions! Great view of the Colorado Rockies to our right! |

Great day for a 9+ mile skijor followed by a 50-100 yard Jack Dash to end the day!
