It was cold and beautiful over the New Year's weekend at Black Butte (bee yoot, let's elevate our minds), Ranch. Had a great time with great company and great snow but man, -4 degrees makes your toes numb. The trip was a Nordic Club trip with 8 people. All of them were seasoned skiers with years of experience. Although I have downhill skied for many years I am a newbie at X-country skiing.
