On January 25th, 28 participants attended the ULLR-hosted Meet and Ski event.  Our club had a good turnout of 24 people, and 4 participants were from other clubs (Ski Hawks, Sitzmark, and Traverski). 

The day started out with a temp of minus 5 degrees, with a wind chill somewhere around minus 15 degrees.  Expecting a meager turnout, I was surprised with the number of people that showed up and supported this event.  I was also surprised that any other ski club members would show up with a temperature that cold.  We skied the newly opened back bowl which was well protected from the wind; the front side wind chill wasn't as pleasant.  

Our great chef Ali Kalish, aided by Ray Hartmann, grilled hot dogs with all the accompaniments as we gathered around the fire pit for lunch.  The snow conditions were good, and we had a fun day of skiing.  At the end of the day we went to Miesville for dinner, and were joined there by 2 members from Ski Hawks and Sitzmark.
