It finally snowed! Finally finally! Time to go skiiiiiiiiing!
We're going to head to Temple mountain, former site of the Temple Mountain ski area. We'll skin up and do as many ski laps as we feel like. Maybe we can make some chili for lunch if we feel like it. Or something like that.

You will learn about skinning, and backcountry ski equipment, and skiiiiing. Note that MITOC doesn't have a lot of AT skis, so depending on your foot size and the participants, you might need to tele. Tele-ing is pretty cool. It'll be good for your quads.

are you interested in telemarking? are you interesting in cooking backcountry lunch, or would you rather just eat readymades (e.g. oreos out of your hood)? Cell phone number?
