Bois de Liesse Jan 2 2014

Report by Glenn K

Since I had to use a booster pack to start my car I decided to re-visit Bois-de-Liesse today.  Conditions (as in the trails) are slightly better than Tuesday.  However I would still rate them  as poor.  The tracks have been set, but the surface is so hard they are not terrible pronounced in many spots.  Moreover, off track is like being on ice (or plastic):  no stopping or turning to speak of.   If you lose your balance (never happened to me J  ), it’s like falling on asphalt.  May try Oka tomorrow.  They did state that all trails would be fully tracked today.  As for the temp, well……   My nose was a bit red for a couple of hours, and since I was trying to cover my face, I had to rest my glasses on the end of my nose and look above them.  Fortunately my eye sight is not that bad.  Without significant snow, it’s going to be more of the same.
