My daredevil days are over but I still enjoy going fast and the conditions were perfect for it at Elk Pass today. I had no fear coming down the big hills at full throttle.

The snow temperature at noon was -9 so blue wax gave good grip. Last night's tracksetting was deep, well-defined and fast.

I made a short side trip on Tyrwhitt to observe about 5 cm of fresh snow over the recent grooming.

Although it was freshly trackset and looked to be in great shape, I didn't take Fox Creek because the downhill on Elk Pass was too inviting.
