Picky Alaskans

So everyone told Liz and I that the snow is terrible in Alaska, you can't ski, you have to drive to Glen Alps or Hatcher's to ski, yadda yadda. Alaskans are just picky and spoiled. Liz and I skied today at Chugiak, and yes, the snow was a little icy, there were no set classic tracks, and there are sticks on the trails, but it was FINE and good skiing! Liz and I were very happy! The main trails are especially really good (not even sticks), the smaller side trails get a little bad, but really, add a few big rocks, dirt patches and some pine cones and that was what we were skiing on in Wyoming. Alaskans don't know how good they have it. Today was warmer (around 10) so it was a beautiful ski. Chugiak has around 20ish K of groomed trails and almost 10 are lighted. So Liz and I are happy that we don't have to drive far to get to ski. If it snows like it is supposed to, the trails will be heavenly! Well happy skiing everyone!
