Sun Mountain Lodge, in Winthrop, WA… 
way up north, where it is really cold.
Groomed cross country ski trails just outside
our hotel room door.
to sunset!!
A fairy tale frost beautiful from sunrise…
My first try ever at cross country skiing.
At 10 degrees outside, the challenge was
how to hold ski poles with numb fingers.
This is what the “tracks” look like – you just
put your skis in and slide along.
