Short Skirts, Long Jacket

Keepin' on keepin' on in overcast conditions

After going to bed last night with overcast skies and blowing snow the Ruff Riders woke up to much of the same. The good news was that the wind was coming from behind so their faces were protected while they skied. Mid day the sun came out, which is always nice, but then the wind and overcast conditions returned. Still they made another 17 miles which is fantastic.

With changing conditions they had to change up their outer layers. Everyone was wearing vests over their wind layers and down skirts, or even two down skirts! They picked the name of today's dispatch, Short Skirts & Long Jacket, based on what what was actually going on.

They are taking turns breaking trail and its working well for them! They are doing an awesome job and we look forward to seeing what tomorrow brings.

Check back again tomorrow for another update from the icecap!
