welp, after two days of snowshoeing through the local woods in hopes of grooming the trails, i thought today might yield decent conditions, what with last nite's sub freezing temps...
boy was I wrong!!!
while there was some pretty decent hardpack on the top layer from my 4 passes (yep, that's right, i hiked one trail 4 different times!!!), there was still enough deep DEEP snow underneath that hadn't firmed up enough at all, so when i rolled through on the bike, i was breaking through that top layer pretty consistently. i was able to get a few decent stretches going but all in all, it was much more hike-a, and much less a-bike...still, a beautiful morning to be out in the woods, and yes, i'm a masochist, so will try again tomorrow!
this has been such a different experience from the storm we had back in December when, two passes with the snowshoes, and the trails were PRIMO! i guess that's the difference between 4-6 inches of snow and 14-18!
