The tracksetters had done our whole planned route the previous evening so we had an excellent day at Peter Lougheed. It was smooth skiing along Moraine followed by Fox Creek:

Then it was up Elk Pass trail:

and after an hour and 20 minutes we took a lunch break at Blueberry Junction where a mini-thermometer registered -3C:

It became a little mistier and it felt like the temperature was cooler as we ascended Blueberry, which was confirmed at the lookout where it was -10C. Participants bundled up for second lunch and the cloud and mist made for almost non-existent views:

It was a fast and fun run down the route we had come. Temperature at the end was -5C, the same as when we started. Thanks everybody for joining me, participants: Rosanne, Philip, Barbara, Nancy, Damian, Clifton, Joanne, Anne, Steve (photos). Ron C/S/P.
