Tronson Ridge old school XC

[Dave_Schuldt]

What you can do w/ 30 year old waxable metal edge XC skis with skins. The parking lot at Swauk Pass is usually a ghetto of blue smoke and noise but not this time. Daytona 500 may be what kept the snowmos glued to their TVs. Didn't see any other skiers but the snow shoes had made a mess of the road. This is a great tour mostly following a marked skier only route. Took us about 6 1/2 hours.

Slide show for your enjoyment.

A few turns here and there, we don't know how to tele so snow has to be just right.

Cool, we used to kick turn traverse that slope too, sometimes still do!
