Sat 2/1 80 minutes very easy

Area 51. Promised myself I would stay away from slippery trails, a resolution that lasted all of 15 minutes. Had thought of taking yaktrax with me before thinking better of it, then found myself wishing I had once I went off-piste. Still, trails have yet to reach hockey rink status and going slow with short steps made it doable. Temps on the way up, back to mild conditions for a couple days at least.
