After work lap(s) to Brockton Point. If there’s enough interest, we can rock a companion rescue practice. Who am I kidding, it’s early season and it’s really important that we practice so if ANYONE is interested I’ll make it happen for you. Groups are welcome to head down/do another lap while people practice, but I strongly prefer that no one travels alone at any point. After this week, I’ll be taking a break from the rescue practice sessions until the new year (weekly fitness laps will continue); if you need to shake off the rust before the holidays, get after it!
The past 2 weeks we enjoyed the novelty of skinning up the resort instead of the usual trail. We’ll likely do the same this week because the coverage is much better than it is through the trees. The resort won’t be open so expect rockstar parking.
Although this road is well maintained, keep an eye on the weather and if you don’t have appropriate winter tires arrange carpooling in the forum.
Ready to skin at 6:30pm
