Another day of firsts for everyone!

Orris Falls trailhead

I've never skied through manure before. :)
I've never worn a helmet skiing (xc or downhill).
And I've never gone skijoring before!
Harley, I'm sure, has never pulled a skier.
I had on the helmet to wear the movie camera (movie coming soon), more than for safety. I did have to drop the line a couple of times on the downhill so I wouldn't run up on Harley's hocks. He was a pretty good sport about it all--though still a little spooky about those sticks snaking in the snow near him. John piloted Harley, and kept him under control, as we skijored down the Orris Falls Trail--a perfect sunny, powder snow day. What a blast!
