Popular Post toast21602 Posted January 25, 2021 Popular Post Report Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) Another solid day of XC skiing with @mbike-ski and @Mixilplix today at James Kennedy State Forest in NY. We ended up getting on the snow just after 11:00. It was a chilly 17 degrees when we pulled in with a light wind and light snow falling pretty much our entire day. Lots of lake effect snow up there this last week dropped ~12" of snow on the ground and provided for some really fantastic xc skiing. We started off doing a nice forest loop right from the start and stayed fairly protected from the wind. After that loop we got out to a snowmobile trail and ended up taking that up to the top of Greek Peak and skiing up part of one of their slopes. to stop for a slope side beer. After that we cruised back down to the snowmobile trail and took that for a bit which ended us right back at the parking lot. Surprisingly, we didn't see anybody else out on the trails while we were there. We ended up with just over 6 miles of skiing and ~600' of vert on some really enjoyable trails. Nice to see real snow on the ground and a big shout out to @mbike-ski for putting this together👌 Edited January 25, 2021 by toast21602 13 2 1 Quote
