Guess we didn't get enough snow after all. The streets were pretty much dry and the trail out of town was in bad shape. We're behind normal snow fall this season. Our sled is set up for powder and doesn't do well unless there is several inches on the ground, or at least some packed ice. Went up to Blue ridge a couple weeks ago. It's about 11000 feet and there was about 3 1/2 feet of undisturbed powder. It's like being on top of the world. It was a beautiful clear day, and I forgot my camera!! Were going to try to take a sled trip to Rabbit ears pass (Steamboat springs) before the end of the season. By the way, Blue ridge is about 15 miles from here. There are sled trial's that take you there. We keep the sled parked out front so all you have to do is hop on it and hit the road, when there is snow.
