Roller ski training Uphill

Climbing a steep hill in my area to train for my winter cross country skiing.
I do 4 repeats of the hill and then ski the rolling hills at the top. It is a great intensity training! The slope is 9%.

I use V2 Aero skis as I use the resistance on them extensively and I need the big wheels for roads that are chipsealed. It is quite a bit rougher than regular pavement.

The fog at the bottom of the valley is from the river in which the water is warmer than the air temperature.
