[NMCCSC] Norski Trail 3/15

[Vicky Kauffman]

Thanks, Amy, for this valent effort and report. It does seem that we are
officially in slush season. Maybe snowshoeing or mud hikes for now.
It was nice to put a face to your name on the last remote meeting. Hope to
meet you in person someday. You definitely get out there and try. I
appreciate that.

Vicky
