Does anybody know who the two mystery snowkiters were in Alexandria today?

That was Adam and I.

What a nice set up...beautiful snowfall Friday night, stopping in time for the DOT to get the roads clean for a nice ride up Saturday morning. The sun comes out as we send the women folk to the waterpark at Arrowwood and we head out for the untracked powder.

That is great! There is only one other snowkiter in Alexandria and he called to see if it was me out there on Saturday. I told him it wasn't and we got excited about the possibility of the Alexandria crew doubling in size. Anyways, glad you got some kiting in and ace plan with the women folk :-)

You had enough wind? Awesome!

Were you on ice or terra firma?

we were on the ice. It looked pretty safe all over, except an area that must have broken up then refroze with jagged edges sticking up all over. I would hate to drag a kite or my body through that.
