Spent another fun weekend down in Shasta. Unlike 2 years ago, Sno-Ball got cancelled... and we haven't had any snow for a while. So the course was fast, but skiing was mediocre. Sat, after the race I skied with the boys (demo-ed some skis too) into the sunset. Sun, we hung out downtown, then went over to Lake Siskiyou to chillax.
Granted I did this on my tele skis in 2019, I did manage to drop 15 minutes... which is pretty significant in a one hour race. Pretty stoked! Goal is to break 55 min...

Next day we hung out by Lake Siskiyou and had this beach to ourselves! Felt like spring!
