XC Ski at Eldora
Weather didn’t looks so nice today for a bike road. Besides, every now and then you gotta switch things up and keep things fresh. With that in mind I headed up to the Eldora Nordic Center to put in a solid 4 hours on the xc skiis.
Trails were groomed, temps were perfect was looking to be a good day.

Hmm, forgot to grab a map, guess I’ll just wing it and head to the top of the mountain. Head up the snowshoe trails and bomb down, close as I can get to singletrack today!
Looked nicer than the groomed trails, little did I know it was about 2,000ft elevation gain straight up! Damn that was tough!
At least when I got to the cabin, the lookout wasn’t very far and I was blessed with fresh tracks on the way to the tippy top!
Look ma, I’m on top of the world (close about 10,500ft or so!)
Yup, started waaay down there by those slopes
All in all it was an awesome 4 hours of xc skiing and I only crashed a few times on the way back down
. 4 solid hours on the skiis and the legs are quite sore as I sit here and type this out.
Tomorrow looks like a great day (mid 40′s), should be a perfect day to nix six hours on the bike!
