Yup. Go get some.

 

Went and got some. Tested out the new boots/AT set up today. Worked like a charm. Here's a few shots from some urban stashes in and round Philly. I took a tour thru Fairmount Park, then earned turns at Wissahickon Ski Hill. Then I came home to new skis. Winter ROX!!!!!!!!!

Parked at the Outward Bounds House and hiked in about 300 yards.

Untracked goodness. Coverage was decent, and warming allowed for some compaction which eliminated most of the smaller hidden obstacles. Larger stuff was apparent nd avoidable. Would not try this again if it warms up.

After getting my sweat on trekking thru the woods, I headed over to my neighbor's hill at Wissahickon Ski Club and earned some turns there. Mostly tracked out by the club members yesterday, some untracked snow was found skier's left of the Tbar and further left in the trees.
