This is an easy cross-country ski trip suitable for beginners. Come to learn the basics if you haven't skied before, or improve your skills if you have. We will ski the Livermore Road trail at Waterville Valley, on the edge of the Waterville Valley ski resort. The first 4 km are groomed, and we'll see how far we get! The ski resort is reporting 2-3" of fresh snow last night, and hopefully lots more is coming on Saturday! As with the hiking trips, this is an opportunity to for practicing your winter skills of layering, the happiness triangle, not having your food and water freeze, etc. But, why trudge around when you can slide along?
