Ski Season



It finally appears that winter has decided to arrive and that of course means that the ski season starts to kick into high gear.
Time to strap on the skis, ski around North Campus and log as many kms as you can while still finding time to study and pass the Medieval History class that you decided to take even though everyone told you it was a bad idea.
It also means, that (hopefully) no more comments like " You know there is no snow" as you head out for a roller ski.

Currently Waterloo has a few cm of snow on the ground and more on the way, which is nice, but not nearly as much as places like London who got like 30 + cm of snow.
But Highlands got even more, so that is a good sign for the up coming Waterloo skiing schedule:
-this weekend Yuletide blast and a Team Time Trial/Qualifier race
-the following weekend, Winter Camp and coinciding with that is the first Ontario Cup

So it will be a very busy next couple of weeks for Waterloo skiers as they get through exams and enjoy the snow and the skiing.

Current conditions at Highlands. Thats a promising amount of snow (http://www.highlandsnordic.ca/snow_conditions.cfm)
