Last night, Eric and I went to Kincaid park after work. I love Anchorage in the fact that there are hundreds of miles of trails right in town. You don't have to travel up the mountain to get to skiing or mountain biking. It's all right here. Kincaid park like many Anchorage parks has lighted paths for night skiing. The parking lot was packed with people and families. It was around 10-15 degrees with a light wind. It's cold at first, but once you get going, you start to sweat. It's not at all like downhill skiing. This is a wonderful way to get some aerobic exercise.
It's easy to hunker down in Anchorage during the dark months, but now we have a fun activity. We just keep our skis and gear in the car at all times, so whenever we feel like it, we can go. It does not cost anything to use the parks in Anchorage ( I guess that's why property taxes are so high!). So, it's a cheap date night. I'm so glad Eric and I picked up some cheap skis at garage sales, because we are having a blast!
