Light Freshies

Just enough new snow on the fast packed trails to safely uncork the skijoring engine! Zoom!

Laying fresh tracks in about 1/2 inch to 1 inch of new snow on the fast packed terrain
underneath. Love the "snow poofs" in Jack's tracks!

We were on the fast trails of Breckenridge Nordic Center this morning and were thrilled to be the first on the trails with the little bit of new snow. My partners love laying fresh tracks and I love having fresh snow to give me some control behind the power trio! Check out the "Rudy Machine" in the following shot:

Rudy putting every bit of his 46 pounds into his pulling frame!
Zorro & Jack flying along beside the Rudy Machine.
The tracks to our left are our "out tracks" as we were laying fresh tracks out & back
all morning long!

Now for the video counterpart to the previous two photos. Come along as we fly along the trails laying light freshies in the little bit of new snow. Wheeee!

At our turnaround point on the trail, everyone having a good time?

"I am having a BLAST!" declares ecstatic Zorro.
"Us too, but why turnaround? Let's go all day!" add the happy but wanting to continue
forward Jack & Rudy.

Flying to the end of the day's run and Nancy gets a fun "shot from the front" of the happy trio and hanging on for dear life human :)

"Flying, zooming, smiling!" demonstrate Zorro, Jack & Rudy.
"Aaaaahhhhh!' says me :)

What a fun & fast day. Time to celebrate with end of run pork treats:

"You have our FULL attention!" say the happy & focused trio.
