Day 2 from Steez on Skis in Trees

Hey from the coolest group in TSS. Today, (being Tues.) we went on the long hike in the previously unaccessable land donated by the Rockefellers. We followed a trail through a good five feet of snow up to the impressive Phelps lake, at the entrance to Death Canyon, one of many formed by glaciers. We learned about fire, and it's importance in maintaining a healthy forest, and about snow and the different metamorphasis they take in the snow pack. The food is delicious, and we've produced very little ort Yah Judge! And in closing a small thoughts on cross country. It's like ice skating without the wall to cling to. You fall alot, you get good at getting up, and going downhill is like rollerblading on ice. There's really no way to stop...
