March 1 never felt so good (only 3 official weeks of winter left!). Finally some significant snow events have arrived before spring (out like a lion?). Made for wonderful wintery travel off the grooming today around telephone loop (CCW). No hazards encountered by the ski bases, although the possibility exists as it’s still a bit thin on the east side. Pole bang for the first couple km or more. Effortless, smooth and silent trail breaking. Eventually encountered a couple ski tracks coming in from snowshoe hare going in the same direction. I think they were enjoying the trail breaking also (skiing side by side often), or maybe just better grip? Back at moose loop to see fresh grooming and track set (but so much more noisy in spots after hours on telephone, wild). Lightly snowing all day with temps staying around -12 to -10. An excellent day out in great conditions.
