X-country in the Jura

 
This weekend Emilie and I headed back to Emilie's mom's place for some more cross-country skiing. My x-mas gift this year from Emilie was a set of skis, boots and poles, so we're planning to get as much use out of them as possible. Plus, the snow conditions this year have been great, so we might as well take advantage while it lasts.

Unlike during our last visit to the Jura for New Years, this weekend the weather was beautiful with lots of sun. Heres a photo that I took during Saturday's outing.


On Sunday we skiied an area that I hadn't been to before: Bellefontaine. It was nice to get a bit of a scenery change, particularly since the area was much more open than normal allowing for plenty of sunshine.




The snow wasn't as nice on Sunday -- a bit icy and unforgiving -- but the nice weather made up for it.
