Friday, December 9.  Cross country ski at Cumbres Pass - 8 mile out/back ski on Dixie Creek to Chama Valley Overlook.  Metal edged, backcountry skis are required.

I really want to go skiing, and the forecast for the Tues-Thurs storm this week appears to me, to give Cumbres Pass enough snow to ski.  (I follow the Cumbres Trestle snowtel station - when it reaches about 18 inches, there is enough snow to ski at Cumbres Pass).

So, I will be watching the midweek snowstorm - if it is a bust, there will not be enough snow to ski and we will cancel.  So, let me know if you are interested to ski on Friday (sorry for folks who are working) - and we will stay in touch.

The plan will be to leave Los Alamos at 7 am (days are short).

Let me know at jeandewart7@gmail.com if you are interested.  Fingers crossed for snow.
