Well, I ventured out into the cold and snowy to try out my skiing legs. I finally ran out of excuses not to go. Today was a beautiful, sunny day with temperatures in the low 30s. Perfect for the fair-weather skier that I’ve turned into the last few years.
Needless to say, Como was PACKED! Mostly little kids playing on the “down hill area” and on the sledding hills though. There were a handful of Nordic skiers out there too. The snow was pretty good. I was well packed and I only saw a few spots of grass poking through. Seems like the golf cart paths are pretty well covered though. I was skating, but the classic tracks did look pretty good. Of course, they were washed out at the bottom of the hills, and on some steep uphills.
My only beef was that a small group of skiers gathered in the middle of the trail to go over some technique tips. There were plenty of areas that the trail was plenty wide to accommodate them, or they could have picked on side or the other instead of the middle of the trail. Oh well, I only ran into them once and it really wasn’t THAT big of deal.
