Holden - Saturday

Went out for the first time to Holden and skied the trails. Would have cost $6 to get in but our membership to the Botanical Gardens on University Circle www.cbgarden.org got us in. The trails are groomed for classical, a little narrow for skate.

We started on the Blue loop and then took off in to the wood on the Red Trail, a little narrow going through the woods but there was a track we could use. Back up to the Blue Loop and around Corning Lake. Across the road and the tracks were wind blown and covered so we went on the Orange Loop and into Bole Woods, not packed but well travelled so the 1/2 mile trip around the woods was fun, deep deep snow. Back to the Nature Center after searching for a hat lost on the trail - no luck - for a cup of coffee and to warm up.

Looking for somewhere different to ski - try Holden - we thought it was worth it. Phill and Cindy
