XC Skiing GTG this weekend?
Hey girls, is anyone interested in getting together this weekend to go cross country skiing? Saturday or Sunday would work for me. I would be willing to go anywhere along the Lakeshore--Pigeon Creek, Riley Trails, Hoffmaster (more challenging), or the state park in North Muskegon. I know a couple of sources for rentals, too, if anyone needs those.
Re: XC Skiing GTG this weekend?
That sounds so much fun! However, I have no idea how to cross country ski.
Have fun!
I don't know now to cross country ski either. If I didn't have plans both Saturday and Sunday, I would totally be up for trying it. Maybe next weekend?
I know how to downhill ski. Would that be a help or a hindrance in learning cross country?
Any idea how much rentals cost?
I might be up for it, if you promise it's not that hard to pick up. It'd be better if there were another newbie going too, so that I'm not the only one slowing everyone down.
What time? How long does it take?
This weekend isn't good for me (company Holiday party Friday night, and we're hosting a big Ugly Sweater party on Saturday, and then Sunday is dedicated to rest/clean up.) Busy weekend.
I'm definitely in if you go again another time this season.
I did it once. It wasn't too hard to pick up. But I fell and sprained my ankle while standing around waiting for people to catch up. Yes, I was just standing there - I'm talented.
So, I suck and will be slow but I want to try it again.
aka you'll be better than me. 
If you have no plans and you and L are bored, you can come to our ugly sweater party. It's going to be super klassy with beer pong, card games, Guitar Hero, Wii games and lots of drinking (not by me though - I'm a quitter.)
Hubby is so excited to play tonight LOL
Grrr, that sounds like fun but this weekend is out for me. :-(
Kasa - I only downhill skied before I tried XC about 3 years ago. It is VERY easy to pick up. Especially if you go to a fairly flat place with some good tracks out there. I would put money on it that you'd pick it up in no time. :-)
I'd be willing to wait until another time that works better for everyone else.
I could probably do Sunday afternoon.
It is super close to my house and that will work.
