Default RE: Winter flying

Got the skis on tonite...not sure of what AOA to put on them, so I went with this (pics). The CG ended to the aft limit without changing anything, so with taking on a 1lb of fuel on full I left it as is. The plane is 8lb 13oz empty. It was late so I didn't get to put the plane in the snow tonite to see how the skis support the wieght. But just looking at it, I think I will have to have a good hard pack for a runway.

What do you guys think?
