Note
Went skiing, it was still windy out, but not like yesterday--at least not in Laramie. Further west, however, must have been a different story, because the Walmart parking lot was packed from one side to the other with semi-trailers. I'm pretty sure they weren't there to shop for Christmas.
The sections of the trail net I skied on had been it by at least a dozen trees. They had been sawed up and moved off to the side, but even after they're moved, there are massive amounts of debris at each spot that require new snow to cover up. For all the pine debris on the trails, the skiing was still decent.
After skiing, I ran on one of the multi-use trails, and it had been hit even harder by falling trees. None of them had been moved yet. Not really a problem for running, and more of a problem for snow bikers. And an opportunity for the chainsaw crowd to get out and do their thing. Just imagine how easy it would be to shop for Christmas gifts for a friend who liked to chainsaw--you'd just get them more new chains, rugged leather gloves, ear protection, and those little portable signs they deploy that say: "Chain-sawer at work, be alert for possible sawdusting."
