Two short videos from a recent ski near one of my favorite spots, Chateaugay Lake in the northern Adirondacks.

Our January thaw, followed by ice and sleet, has put a stop to most backcountry gliding for now. But with luck we’ll have a storm soon and I’ll get a bit more skiing in.

Right now I’m off to find some skateable ice. Here’s hoping the winter gives you some outdoor fun.
