Last winter grooming returned to the trails south of Lake Como. Together we'll enjoy this trail system that has been re-opened for use by x-country skiers, snowshoers, fat bikers, and dog sleds. This will be an out and back trip on cross-country skis with occasional
views across the Bitterroot Valley. There is some elevation gain at the start of the system, so skiers should be comfortable with hills, as we will have a half-mile downhill glide to enjoy to return to the parking area. Participants will need to provide their
own xc ski gear. Carpools from Missoula (9am) and Hamilton (10am) will be arranged. </p>
