First ski trip of the season!
And a fine trip it was! I drove up to Royal Gorge today with my daughter to meet friends and spend the day cross-country skiing. I don’t think I’ve seen a more perfect December Sierra day. It was just below freezing. The snow was only about 24 hours old and I was able to use blue wax. (Californians will understand just how rare thatis.)
On the way home we saw an astounding sunset over the Central Valley and Sacramento that lasted nearly a full hour.
