The Que Trail is awesome! On the day I ran, it was 12 degrees and most of the trail was covered in hard-packed snow. I had never been on the trail before, so I went into the run with the intention of merely getting to know it, scouting it out, taking it slow, maybe walking some. Yet, despite the snow-pack, the trail is super friendly, inviting you to run,which lent itself to faster splits than I had expected. My bite valves froze, so I lost a bit of time stopping to unscrew the flasks to drink, once to manage frozen stiff hands, and at some of the road crossings to search for the trail markers... but it was not easy to stop... I just wanted to run and run and run on this flowy, fun trail :) I can't wait to return in shorts weather to a clear trail to knock off a bunch of time! 

My Garmin fenix 5s clocked the run at 15.45 miles with 1,483 feet of elevation gain and 1,414 feet of loss.
