The Rock Soup Ski is this coming Saturday, January 26th.

It starts around 2:30 – 3:00 PM at the Fourth of July Area.

Bob Conquergood and Geoff Harvey will be "cooking" this year.

For those of you new to this event, this is the way it works.

Bob and Goeff will start a fire in the warming hut, fire up a stove,
and get a meat based and a vegetarian based broth steaming in a
couple of pots.

The rest of you stop by the hut with your contribution to the pots.
Such as a can of beans, a package of pasta, a can of cooked meat, (no
raw meat please), a can of WHAT?

Also bring something else to share, such as bread, drinks, veggi
snacks, crackers, chips, dessert, etc,

Bring your own eating utensils and bowls.

Then go off to ski the area or snowshoe, while some stay in the hut
to stir the resulting mix.

When it gets dark (about 5:00) skiers filter back into the hut. We
light the lantern and candles and serve up the rock soup with the
bread, drinks and dessert. Good food and friendship is shared well
into the cold dark January evening.

In years past, moonlight skis to the Junction have followed the
food. At very least, you can expect a night ski to the parking lot
after the event, so it is wise to bring a headlamp or flashlight to
guide your way.
