Wave

First tracks on a freshly groomed nordic trail once we got far away from the trailhead and weekend crowds. Wheeee!

First tracks on a fresh groom with snow poofs flying off Jack & Rudy's feet!

It was a beautiful bluebird morning. Once we got high enough in elevation, the views were stunning and the kids, Jack & Rudy, were still flying!

What a beautiful morning, what impressive skijor pals as we fly
along this high elevation nordic trail.

We did encounter a few others along the way (especially when we were closer to the trailhead). Most people stop and watch in awe as Jack & Rudy tow me on by. Some will even clap and cheer. Today we got a nice wave from a onlooker watching us cruise on by :)

Look really close and this skier's right arm is raised giving us a wave.
I waved back :)

For today's video highlight it was "zoom, zoom, zooming" and then the fun wave. If you look closely, you'll see the skier we encounter near the end of this clip lift his arm to give us a wave as we fly on by (look closely around the 43 second point of the clip for the wave :)

[watch on youtube if no video loads below]

Of course all that zooming means you have to roll snow angels to cool off at any pause during the outing!

Jack, as always, rolling to cool his jets.
Rudy participating in snow angels today as he simultaneously grabs
a snowcone to munch on while rolling - talented!

Finally, a really nice snow wall to climb today so I could hand out end of run treats from a standing position. Such polite guys to climb the walls to my level :)

"Up & ready, let's get to the treats!" says the happy & fun kids.

It was a beautiful morning to skijor fast and far! 9.4 miles traveled with 1000 feet of elevation climbed and a top speed of 24 MPH.
