6 Day Ski Trip - January 2008 |

 Montana Caravans enjoyed a wonderful six day cross-country ski trip with a North Carolina friend in January.
We skied three days in powder at the Izaak Walton Inn in Essex, Montana (along Highway 2 - Glacier National Park's southern boundary) and stayed in one of the old red cabooses. Then we moved to the Belton Chalet and one of its restored cottages in West Glacier for another three nights. We also skiied two days in the Park and one day at Big Mountain in Whitefish, Montana. And even though the temperature plunged to 20 degrees below zero on the day my guest was to leave at noon, we still bundled up and skied one hour on the groomed trails at the Glacier Outdoor Center. January 2008 Ski Photos This ski trip will be run next winter, February 17, 2009 through February 23, 2009. (This trip was organized by Montana Caravans and listed by its colleague, Wildside Adventures for Women. See the Wildside site for a complete list of trips in the Eastern United States.) |

Enjoying winter in Montana is to enjoy crisp, cool mornings, wondering whether the sun will break through the fog, hiking from my home office down to the Post Office through the morning  stillness, looking at snowshoe hare and deer tracks in the snow - wondering how they were able to move through waist deep snow piles. It's the end of April - will there be another blizzard soon? |
