XC Ski - Skate 1:01:47 10.78 km (5:44 / km) +240m 5:09 / km
ahr:137 max:155 shoes: '03 Yellow Fischer Skating
Got over there at 10:00 - would have been even more awesome earlier. Some sections still crisp and fast, other sections warmed up and wet/sluggish. Not crowded, but more folks out on the trails than I was expecting to see.
Did a couple of the ski-o trails I'd banged in earlier this week - soft and slow - really needed to have been hit again in the interim.

After work fun session at Gunstock.
Trails in overall very good shape - varied from crisp and fast to wet and sticky depending on sun impact and what had started to cool down already.
A couple other guys out there having fun as well.

Snowshoe 1:42:23 3.01 km (34:04 / km) +88m 29:43 / km
ahr:112 max:133
Snowshoeing at Gunstock - looking at track options for potential Ski-O net weekend.
GNA has a chest harness with attached tire behind - dragging that behind me to see how well it smoothed things out - worked very well, but exhausting work. Also grabbed a small sled - put the tire on that for traversing set trails and some of the uphills - much less drag.
Back and forth on if I want to hold something next weekend or not - traveling most of this week, and only got to about 1/4 of the tracks I'd like to have available.
Still amped up from the Craftsbury event - snow cover should still be good, but there is both the mental and physical stress that I always seem to forget about until the final prep time is half gone...

ahr:131 max:148 shoes: '18 Salomon Equipe RS-192
Inaugural spin out on my new Salomon Equipe RS skis - slightly longer and stiffer than my older Equipe 8s.
Great conditions - full snow cover - some branches and pine cones down. Stiff breeze was not an issue out in the woods, but very noticeable coming up the Cobble powerlines.
Quite a few folks out - all ages.

XC Ski - BackCountry 56:59 3.13 km (18:14 / km) +120m 15:18 / km
ahr:116 max:132 shoes: Peltonen BlueFat BackCountry S
Clunking around in the new deep stuff. Varied between following snowshoe tracks and breaking my own trail - skis kept getting clogged up - knocking them against a tree got some off, but not all of it. Took them off and scraped the now off on tree bark - things sped up considerably then for a bit.
