I put all put two pairs of skis away. I kept a pair of waxless rock skis and a pair of all-terrain ski mountaineering boards handy ... to keep me covered in case of a freak snowstorm. So, this morning I got muddy doing a short hike up Owl's Head, even though it has been snowing lightly, I decided it was time to change my athletic focus. It is time to start planning an alpine adventure for the summer.
