Spring ski touring in the Adirondacks

March was very cold and snowy, but spring-like weather has finally
arrived. We will probably be collecting sap in the sugarbush tomorrow.

It was 45 degrees this afternoon when I went for an hour-long tour on
the NCS ski mountaineering loop. Yesterday, some of the young staff
skied the Cascade Slide. On Sunday a local website mentioned that a
party had done several laps on Angel Slide. I have lots of work to
catch up on before I head out to Utah next week for our school and
camp ski reunion, however I am hoping to do something this weekend.
A few pitches of ice? North face of Gothics? Ride the lifts on
Whiteface? Ski the toll road?

YAHOO!
