With decent temperatures on Sunday afternoon, we tried out our cross-country skis for the first time this season. It's just like riding a bike! The kids did great, but Owen can go light-years faster than Hadley's little plastic strap-on shuffle skis. I might need to try her out on some upgraded skis and poles (she's using my downhill poles below) to see if that helps us stay together better.
The kids were interested in hiking up a slope to ski down. Easier said than done! But they were able to climb up the fountain no problem once they put their skis in the car.
Owen and I even went again the next day when Hadley still had school and he didn't. We hiked up and skied down the little hill by the fountain lots of times. O got tuckered out and enjoyed falling, too, of course.
