I went for a short ski hop along Rabbit Slough to check out the conditions. The road itself is closed so first you need to ski or walk from the main road to the parking lot at the boat ramp. The center of the road and trail are hard packed and a bit icy, with footprints making it a little rough for skiing. But off to either side of the packed trail it is nice untouched powder snow, perfect for skiing. My dog seemed pretty disinterested in the whole idea and kept running ahead, stopping, then racing back towards the car. At the one mile point, I decided to head back. She happily ran at top speed all the way back to the car. Then we walked around Reflections Lake and she had no complaints walking there. Dog brains can be interesting sometimes. I want to go back to Rabbit Slough after we get a little more fresh snow. It's a very pleasant place to ski, hike or kayak, and is never crowded.
