Skiing Through Intense Wind

A 2024 team skis across the windswept icecap

The Ruff Riders had a delayed start to the ski day, and, par for the course at this point, they persevered through very challenging conditions while traveling. Despite the shortened day they managed to tick off a little less than six miles.

The jury is still out as to whether they'll be able to travel tomorrow as a large low pressure system is looming over most of the southern icecap. That low pressure system will bring powerful wind, but, on the bright side, it will also bring relatively warm temperatures--meaning just below freezing.

We feel like a broken record at this point, but this impressive team deserves a major positive change in their weather luck. You can wish for that, but of course all you can really do is make the most of the cards you're dealt. Big salute to the Ruff Riders' resolve and determination!
