My favorite is x-country skiing. And let's face it, x-country skiing is what you make it. If you prefer to "walk" with you skis, great! You are out doors, exercising and enjoying yourself. But if you plan to "skate-ski", a bit more rigorous - well, that's great too.

The most important thing is to get outside during those winter months and just DO something! Winters become much more enjoyable!
