XC skiing is the best way to get around the snowy woods. Stinchfield is a popular ski area in SE Michigan. It offers casual, homestyle trails and about 5 square miles of forest and hills, with about 10 miles of trail. I videoed a couple of the favorite downhills. I just held my minicam out as I skied. These hills are usually a LOT faster, but they were still fun. They’re each about a half-mile long. It was the sunny last day of snow for the year, so the snow was getting soft. So, for all you Stinchfield fans, here’s a little video. If you can’t ski, you can always watch! : ) This video is courtesy of me, Jeff Potter, and my outdoor media resource center, OutYourBackDoor.com—the best place to go for independent outdoor media and stories of all kinds. 1000+ stories! Thanks to Daisy May for letting me use her super song!

There are two ways you can look at a disastrous performance like this. On the one hand, this is the worst sports disaster since the WNBA. On the other hand, it’s cross-country skiing so no one cares.
