Broken Skiis

It's been a great winter for winter sports. Lots of snow and cold temperatures to keep the snow on the ground. I thought I would take advantage of it over the weekend and take out my new Cross Country Skiis.

I went to Smugglers Notch, hooked up at their Nordic Center for a day out on the very nicely groomed trails. I guess it was a bit too cold and I took a couple face plants. The surface snow was frozen and I ended up with broken bindings. Mind you, this is my second time on these skiis. Well, at one point, near the end of my day on the trails, I couldn't get my boot back into the binding and I had to walk back to the lodge, skiis in hand! Good Times!

A big thank you to a very nice gentlemen at Eastern Mountain Sports who helped me out with those bindings and some great words of wisdom in my cross country ski infancy!
