How's the snow
Last night Aaron Tarnow and I ventured out on skate skis in the moonlight at Mt Bachelor on the Cascade Lakes Highway. No wind, good-excellent ski surface. We didn't even need head lamps. Skied to Todd Lake turn off, back to the car, out on Mt Bachelor's beginners oval, up to the Nordic Center and back to the Oval. Pretty nice 90 minutes and home by 8:00 PM.
Is anyone else out there skiing? How is the weather?
The Mount Bachelor Sports Education Foundation Par Fore the Course 10 km skate race scheduled for this Saturday, December 13, is not happening. They may try to reschedule if the stars align correctly. The NOAA forecast is as follows:
Thursday Night: Increasing clouds, with a low around 28. Southwest wind around 8 mph.
Friday: Snow. High near 35. Windy, with a west wind 16 to 19 mph increasing to between 30 and 33 mph. Winds could gust as high as 43 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%.
Friday Night: Snow. Low around 15. Windy. Chance of precipitation is 80%.
Saturday: Snow. High near 17. Chance of precipitation is 80%.
Saturday Night: Snow likely. Cloudy, with a low around 9.
Sunday: A chance of snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 17.
Keep the faith,
Bert

tues eve I skated down cascades lks hwy to the sparks lk jct. there a couple thin spots on the hwy about 1/2 way down the long hill, otherwise good. turn left at the bottom of the hill, follow the sparks lk road into the boat ramp, about 3k. this road is great, the best skating conds around. then a long steady climb back up the hwy. the moon was bright, headlamp not necessary. clear and no wind.
