Green Canyon via the Canal and BST.  Trail is totally clear up to the second gate (at the end of the first section of single track), but it's like there's a line drawn there where the snow and ice starts.  It seems to be melting at a good rate, but it will be awhile before it's clear all the way up to the top. It was nice to get a decent trail run in though.  Sunny and fairly warm today.  I might have even got a little bit of a sunburn.

I like the new pic and singlet. What race is that at?

GC always seems to be that way- nice and clear the first mile, then foot deep snow right after the gate. You can generally run on the snow, though.

I've had the singlet since TOU but the pic is at the Sand Hollow Marathon about a half a mile before the 22 mile mark. And yeah, the snow is pretty runnable. Slippery in spots, but runnable if you aren't trying to break any speed records.

I plowed my way all the way to the top once before they started putting the ski trail. I remember the last 400 yards was postholing thigh deep and took me 10 min. Plus my shins were all cut up from the icy top layer. But the bottom was completely snow free. Good times.

haha yeah I've done that once last year...and not only all that but when your foot finally stops it's in 4 inches of freezing melted snow at the bottom.
