Snow has arrived in the Greater Fairbanks area and while its a little too grassy to ski on the trails around our house, I had high hopes for the trails up in the White Mountains.  Remus and I headed out to the Mile 28 trail head to check out the trails.
 
The trails out of Mile 28 are a bit rocky but quite ski-able and fun in a rock-ski only sort of way..  so long as you don’t crash, as the snow cover is a bit thin.  I didn’t head down to the low lands, but stayed on Trail Creek Trail and the skiing was pretty good.  The biking would have been even better great – but alas I left the bike at home as I have yet to swap out the warm weather only front shock..
I skied several miles past Lee’s Cabin then turned around and headed back .
Winter is a great time in Fairbanks – there are so many winter trails to explore!
