There are miles and miles of really great cross-country skiing available at Kincaid Park right now. But all of those miles are located on the 2.4 kilometer man-made snow loop. And this morning that little loop was packed with 500+ high school kids who were thrashing around on it, vying for the title of "Lynxloppet Champion". We didn't need to get embroiled in that mess, so we made the 45-minute drive south with our classic skis to slash a little Chugach pow-pow on the Girdwood nordic loop. Some of us (I'm speaking for myself here) only brought our rock skis but this proved to be a poor decision as there was not a rock to be found out there. When I use my rock skis, I want to hit some rocks, dammit!

We followed the groomer around. Literally. That's Jim and Peter on the snowmachine in front of Andrew and Toomas. |

Here are the women getting Andrew's instructions about today's intervals. |
