Day on the Telemarks at Hotham

13 08 2009

Well the rain stopped but it’s still pretty warm sop it was spring like conditions out there today. Fairly soft snow and getting pretty chopped up. I had a great day hitting some of the steeper slopes I usually save for fresh dump days as the snow was so soft it was pretty similar though a lot harder work to push your way through it.

All in all a great day. Here’s the SportsTracker Link and I’ll stick the map data below …

Cross Country Ski at Mount Hotham

12 08 2009

Popped out the front of the lodge for a cross-country skiing as the weather was very average, raining, and it is never fun skiing in the rain. The other main problem today has been a bout of gastro fro Cadell so all in all a very slow lazy day ! Apart from my ski !

Dropped down from the lodge and around my favorite loop, lots of up and down so a good work out. As I’m not in the peak of fitness ;-) I took the diagonal stride skis not my skating skis. At least you can cut the pace down up the hills if you need to skating, is a way hard max heart rate option.

Had a bit of snow when I left but then dropped out of the clouds for most of the loop. The snow was really soft, I ended up skating down most of the hils to keep up some pace. Anyway, a good ski. Check out the details on SportsTracker
