Today's Report
Another beautiful snowy day on the trails. Chanse has regroomed everything with the Husky and conditions are in excellent shape. If you didnt get the memo the Woolner Loop is now open! It will be soft and there are a few spots that have bled up but it’s in pretty good condition.
All ski trails are open.
Here is where everyone chimes in but itβs COOOLLDDDD. You are right it is cold but with some proper layer choices you can still have a fantastic ski I promise! Once you are in the trees and out of the wind it will be much better. I have added some layer suggestions to help you get outside today.
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.
