Kilted Nordic (Cross country) skiing...

Great photos Arlen. Of course, the little bit of snow that we've had, hasn't been enough to even the ground :mrgreen:.

I am enjoying myself a great deal, Glen. I like snow and it's finally a comfortable temperature for me.
Oddern, I'd never tried it before but my wife and her family have done it for generations. She'd always told me how great it was and I really wanted to try. Seeing a documentary about the Heroes of Telemark and their true story (Not the Hollywood version) made me even more determined to give it a go.

Hopefully we'll see some pictures of you skiing in your Kilt soon!!

Arlen,

Would that be the Ray Mears' documentary? I wrote BBC some time ago asking that they release it on DVD, to no avail.

There is another Telemark documentary, though:

Check with the local public library and see if they could order it for you. I ordered a copy for our college library, and it is very well done.

I must say that the story of Telemark has put the idea of taking up skiing in my heid, but being in Missouri makes it a wee bit difficult!

Cheers,

Todd

Skiing and me don't mix but obviously they do for you and Diane Arlen!
