Alaska
Since 2006 I have been visiting a different place in Alaska each year, and hope to continue doing so.
2006: Wrangel/St Elias NP, Seward, and Valdez
2007: Homer and Kachemak Bay State Park
I cross country skied out of the Pineside Snow Park, north of Trout Lake, on Jan 10, 2011. I skied the Hole-in-the-Ground loop, but extended it's northern part to the Gotchen cabin. The entire loop was about 9.7 miles and gained about 1000 feet.
