Nordic skiing in fresh powder in Stowe!

Yay! It felt so good to get out on snowy trails today after a long week of work and frigid temperatures. And, when I took to the cross-country trails, I suddenly was skiing through a mini-snowstorm! A squall of heavy snow dropped more than an inch of snow while I was classic skiing. Then, the sun broke through the clouds again. The trails at Stowe Mountain Resort / Mt. Mansfield Nordic Center seemed well covered when I started, and they are even more so now.
