Alan Shapiro here in Santa Fe. I posted a Sierra Club outing at the 
Santa Fe Ski Basin to take place on Friday. Any NMCCSC members are 
invited to come on up.
Here's my blurb, web link at

  XC Ski Play and Practice at the Santa Fe Ski Basin, an informal
  outing   THIS FRIDAY AT 11AM

With Santa Fe Ski Basin having ended their season early, I thought to 
take advantage of the empty slopes. Climb up the wide open Easy Street 
trail from the base then ski down practicing turns on a gentle slope. I 
will be happy to offer guidance to those cross-country skiers looking 
for some pointers. After an hour or so have a picnic lunch on the deck 
of Totemoff's, then ski some more.
The weather looks good for Spring skiing conditions.
Waxless cross-country skis with a climbing pattern should be OK to climb 
the gentle slope, though climbing skins (full or kicker length) would 
make it easier.

With virus concerns we can still have fun, keep our "social distancing" 
and get some outdoor exercise.
No carpooling, just meet on the snow.
