-----------------------
Are you in town and want to snowshoe for 2-3 hours Friday evening, January 1, when the moon comes up? Or XC ski? We'll stay in town and get some exercise at the golf course located on Speedway. I checked it out and the snow is in good condition. This is gently rolling hilly terrain and very beginner-friendly. It'll be a nice change-of-scenery for those of you who XC ski in town. There are no officially-groomed trails, but people in the neighborhood have set trails for skiing.
This is a perfect trip for first-time snowshoers. If you want to go, please e-mail me by 3:30 pm Friday so I know if anyone is showing up on such short notice. Wear warm layers (wool, polypropylene, warm boots, hat and gloves or mittens - it will be very cold). Meet at the PSC at 4:45 and get gear from the cage. We can be on the golf course by 5:30 when the "almost full" moon rises.
We'll snowshoe for an hour or two, then get a beer at the local tavern, either the one across from the golf course or at a tavern on Monroe on the way back to the union. We'll be back at the union by 8:30 or so.
No costs other than you beverage. Both taverns serve food if you want dinner.
