Mansfield Hollow Lake Snowkiting Session
Mansfield Hollow Lake is in Mansfield,Ct. Jeff and I headed out there around noon and we weren't very impressed with what storm Barbara left us. Being only my second time snowkiting I was excited but there was about 3", at the most covering the lake. We launched about a hundred yards out and the wind was strong for the first half hour and slowly started to die down after that. I was able to use MotionX GPS to log the run and I'll post it on the bottom. All in all...it was better than going to work! Hats off to my sick 8yr. old son who took some pictures....
