Back in the great semi-white North. Worked frantically all day to catch up around the house after being out in the desert for 10 days, and finally got to hit up Silvermine to go ski late in the afternoon. Skate deck was packed and tracked, with a classic track set all the way around the expanded loop. Snow was nice and decently fast; I had a great time getting my ski legs back. 

And new this season, Silvermine has lights! For any early or later skiers, you can now turn on the lights and get some skiing in without depending on the daylight window; just plug it in, located off the sled nearest the first light. For the field light, you may need to go hit the button as well.  See photos for more detail, and if you do use the lights, be sure to turn them off before leaving. 

If you want to support the snowmaking, grooming, and light pole setting efforts, buy a pass or donate at ! And enjoy one of the few skiable snow areas in the Chippewa Valley for now, although here's to hoping we get more snow soon so all XC ski areas can open up! ❄️
