Trip Details
Please eat a decent breakfast before coming, and bring a snack as well. Be aware that this is a cardio sport; you're on the trail for about an hour and half and it will feel like a slow jog. New cross county skiers (including those who have downhill skied) should watch this link to detailed video of what to wear (it's different from downhill skiing).
Remember to reimburse your driver for gas: about $5-10.
New skiers, and group safety. The trail is very safe and for all skill levels. It's an in-and-out trail. People will naturally group with those of their "like speed", and no we won't leave people behind. New skiers will be taught the following in person: "How to stop on Cross Country Skis".
