After Dark

It gets dark before 5, I was skiing by 5.30, nothing too out of the way but it was dark, DARK. The trail, my headlamp and number one didn't seem to mind it so much, we traveled up plenty warm and happy. I missed the kick wax but it didn't matter. I kept hearing what wasn't there, little kid lost in the woods freaked out, after dark kind of thing. On the other side of the night I hit up the groomed trails before dawn, two different skis, one night. Skating windloaded (groomed)trails that hadn't seen a groomer in a while, work. Do work when you can, the more the better right now, focus.
