With temperatures in the low 50s, drizzle, and a nice breeze, four ascents of the FWW alpine hill (750 m total climb) was easily done by the SCUM today. With the hill fully mowed and the air free of wildfire smoke, we could chat as we ski walked. Lola was the only one to do fartlek ball chases during her ascents:
We’re always looking for additional companions as SCUM leave town for fishing, hunting, and travel Outside. We meet at Birch Hill at 10 a.m. (maybe a little earlier when it’s wet or chilly) every Friday until snow closes the Birch Hill trails to foot traffic. Tom Helmers and Bill Husby have mowed all the Birch Hill trails, and the Army contractor has done the FWW alpine hill, so conditions are great. No mosquitoes today, either.
