West Bragg Ski Trails (Telephone Loop) Track Skiing on 14-Jan-2012
A short trip around the telephone loop in West Bragg for those Ramblers who needed to get back home early. The 25cm of snow touted by the K-Country website must have been measured somewhere else, and rock dodging was a definite feature of the day.
One of the younger and more supple Ramblers had been practising log crossing techniques, and was able to demonstrate her 5 step method with grace. When attempted by an older less flexible Rambler, the results were much less favourable.Thanks to Lisa, Sheila, Bernie, and Rex from C/S Stan for their great company on a sunny day in the hills.
