Distance: 16 miles
Time: 3 hours
Conditions: Everything
A nice easy final day for the tour. Up from Bachelor heading north with immediate and constant great views of many Cascade peaks. Trail was alternately, packed dry, packed wet, frozen and windblown. The last downhill section into Three Creeks Sno Park was great. Several miles of continuous downhill, and the trail had just been groomed.
From Three Creeks I skied another five or six miles next to the road before the snow ended. Got a ride into Sisters and breakfast at the appropriately named Ski Inn. Probably the first time someone leaned their skis against the window. Two rides later into the outskirts of Bend, walked cross town to Century Drive, and got a ride to the car.
Done deal.
The Dream
Ski across the great state of Oregon, from south to north, on the OSSA snow mobile trail network.
