Quesnel, Cross-Country Skiing
Being an avid downhill skier the idea of pushing & sweating my way through a ski run was a hard sell but enough harrassing from good friends Sunshine & Victor and the "excuse" reserve pathetically low I decided to check it out. Cross country skiers always look incredibly fit and healthy and for good reason, it is a physical work-out but after one time I was hooked. I was so impressed by the professional standards of the trail network, the maintenance and constant work was evident. We set off at 7:00pm, minus 12, on the 3km of lit trails, under the stars and among the silence. It was such a great night and such a great facility, we are so lucky to have this kind of devotion to a passion as the Cariboo Ski Touring Club has displayed; it is a true asset to our community, region and province.
