Echols Dorm: Brick Wall By Side Door
Rivanna Trail
So the forecast says that we are going to get a lot of snow. Assuming that happens and class is cancelled, I am planning on cross country skiing tomorrow. Anyone is welcome to join. If you have never skied before, no worries. Cross Country Skiing is fairly straight forward and I can teach you!
If you are planning on skiing, make sure you go to the gear room tonight to check out skis.
Game plan:
Meet at 11 am by Echols brick wall. Skiing destinations TBD. But I am thinking the rivana trail.
What you need to bring:
-Warm, waterproof gear similar to what you’d wear while skiing or snowboarding. It will probably be pretty cold outside, but you’ll get warm, so aim for layers (thermal base layer, fleece, coat, wool socks, waterproof pants, hat, gloves). Bring an extra pair of gloves.
– backpack
-XC skis if ya got ’em, otherwise the club has some and there are rentals.
-$$ for food and rentals
-Snacks
– at least 2L of water
I am bringing a thermos of hot chocolate to share!
