Jan. 1: First fuel of the decade (besides coffee): veggie omelettes, potatoes, fresh fruit and yogurt. We skied up to the first crossing of the Gale River, then turned around. 		  We parked at Beaver Brook, off Route 3. We took the Beaver Loop Trail to the unplowed Gale River Loop Road, and we were on the Gale River Trail after less than a mile of skiing. It's a pretty smooth hiking trail, and the occasional semi-exposed rock or downed tree didn't stop us.
Getting down low on the Gale River Trail.
 This is done with skis still on.
After about two miles each way on the Gale River Trail, we took the Badger Trail back through the Beaver Brook area. It was tricky because the snow wasn't very deep.
