Moose Chase Highlights
It was a well attended event- ages 5 to 80, from JH and across the region. One of the local Ski Club top racers broke a pole, so was unable to finish- disappointing for him. Fantastic efforts by all for a hilly, challenging race! JH Ski Club coaches were out cheering for their student-athletes. Course was in excellent groomed condition- with a bit of windy blasts, sun. Here are a few photos, enjoy!
Field Report: XC Ski Trip to Phelps Lake
After the Moose Chase, a few friends donned their classic xc skis, and headed north to frozen Phelps Lake along the skier track Moose-Wilson road.
We encountered friends on the trail, other skiers, snowshoers, and heard about a moose over near the Woodland trail, whom we decided to give space and distance to.
Lunch on the Lake Creek bridge, skied our into the openness of the frozen lake, with views of Mt Albright and Death Canyon. And a contrast in the sky of snow clouds, blue sky, snow crystals and sun.. simply a beautiful day to love winter!!

Weather has finally calmed and the Nordic skiing should be great. Expect the trails to have a few quirky spots, as it will take a few days to work in the recent snowfall. Take a break from all the shoveling and go for a xcski!
