Mt Crawford

 Mt Crawford today via the Davis Path. It started out cool at about 10 degrees. Bright sun and very little wind made it very comfortable by the time we got to the top. Great views of Mt Washington from the top.

Sebago State Park

 We went to Sebago State Park today. There are two areas: East (Casco) and West (Naples). There was little snow today but the web site says they have 5.5 miles of groomed trails on the East side and 6.0 miles of ungroomed on the West for x country skiing. We will have to check that out!

We started on the East side. This area has a long sand beach on the North shore of Sebago Lake. The trails are wide and well maintained. We went on the Outer Loop trail which is the main trail that goes along the Sango river, Sebago lake beach, and a marsh area. Nice area and I can see how it would be great for groomed skiing if there was snow.

Then we went to the West side on Campground Road. The road is closed at the entrance but there is parking there and access to the trails. We went on Beaver Lodge, Violet, Kingfisher, and Sango Wilderness trails. These trails have some hills and also go near the Sango river. These trails are more narrow and rough than the East side but would be fine for skiing. Hope we get a chance to ski here sometime this winter.

Skiing 237 Trails

 We got enough snow to go skiing for the first time this year. Trails skied fine with only 3 inches of moderately heavy snow. It would be nice if this continued but looks like big rain storm tomorrow.
