Boxing Day Activities
Shelly Under The 5 Degree Sun
2014 is rapidly drawing to a close and so is my year long blog project. For the last few days I will post post photos of our year end vacation in the beautiful, snowy and cold Colorado mountains.
We’re in Steamboat for a few days. Today it was about 5 F degrees And so we went out to Catamount to do some skate skiing. We did two loops totaling about 7.5 miles. GPS track below:
We kept warm by moving fast. Here I am catching my breath:
This ski area is on country club property but open to the public. They have about 30 kilometers of excellent groomed trails that run over wide open snow covered ranch fields. The photo below shows a bit of the area. Those paths are not roads, they are the groomed trails:
We stopped for a snack and to warm up at the Nordic center after the first loop. After the second loop we were mucho tired and cold, this was our first skate ski of the season.
Back to our condo for a hot tub soak with a sunset view!
