Today's Report
Let it snow! New snow last night and more to come today will make for some great skiing. And Chanse is very thankful that he gets to ride around in the Husky this morning. It is a chilly one out there! We are moving into a bit of cold snap for the next few days. If are unsure about what to wear in these cold temperatures I have put down some suggestions for you. Don’t miss out on skiing just because it is cold! Conditions will be soft and snow-covered. Classic skiing would be a great option today.
Everything except the extra loops on the Woolner (Rockside and South 10)
What would I be wearing while on the trails in the cold?
Top, 3 to 4 layers: my warmer base layer, merino baselayer that I use for a mid layer, maybe a light fleece (for me I find a fleece too much for a solo ski, although would have keep it if I was skiing with others) and jacket on top.
Bottom, 2 layers (I never wear more than 2 just change the weight): my warmer base layer, and heavier outer pants. Proper underwear makes a difference too! The no cotton holds true to underwear just as much as your base layer.
Accessories: warm hat (Sauce Chill Toque), regular weight buff, warmest mitts (Auclair Gigatex, again I find these too much for a solo ski but good if I was skiing with someone), and my Lorpen socks. I usually put on some vaseline on my cheeks and lips to help cut the wind and add a layer of protection. It wonβt specifically help with frostbite but it helps with wind burn.
Bottom line donβt let the cold scare you off! You may discover you can enjoy being outside even when it is cold.
