Rob and Hild's "bit of the web"



Ithaca covered in snow!!
From December 2002 onwards...

We hardly got any snow in 2002 - mainly because we bought new skis and were way too excited about the prospect of cross-country skiing every weekend. This year, we acted casual and look what we got...

And now we're skiing at every possible opportunity...

Rob skis around a branch that has dropped in the middle of the track - and frozen to the ground!! Hild avoids a tree that is leaning in over the track - ice and snow weighs a lot! Rob skis under a set of trees nearly blocking the track after the ice-storm.

Rob decides to do some minor/major track maintenance. Uphills are hard enough as it is - Hild puts on more Blue Special Swix. Rob, having gone fast down-hill for quite a few kilometers also stops to re-wax for the slog up the hill.
