December 5th, 2020 is the 2081st anniversary of Cicero’s fourth Catiline oration, well as the 87th anniversary of the ratification of the 21st amendment abolishing prohibition. Freedom lovers will certainly enjoy celebrating this great day with a ski at the Alturas Lake Ski Area. Wapiti trail does have some aspen twigs poking though the snow and North Cabin trail is rather rough with some dangerous stumps to avoid. Otherwise, the trails are in really good condition for skate and classic. In addition, our most excellent groomer, Chadeus Maximus, will be there, grooming out any slight flaws that could annoy you on this otherwise perfect day. Feel the freedom! Enjoy the sunshine! Kick and glide!
