Mindy, head of the pro-ski patrol, has been wanting to try skijoring so we took a hookie Wednesday adventure to the mountains.
I have not been on skinny skate skis for at least 5 years. I gave Mindy, the much younger and better skier, Koyuk, the younger more energetic Chinook. I skied with Cedar.
X-C skiers watching skijorers always say "you're cheating" but it is really harder than it looks, especially if you have dogs that need to make sure you are all right, give kisses and get tangled when you are down.
For the most part it was beautiful gliding on a cold winter day.
Opps. Cedar is consoling Mindy as Koyuk checks for a squirrel.
After a little over 3 miles, we made it back to the van - tired from laughing and wonderful exercise.
Until the next adventure...
