Snow!!!

We finally received our first significant snowfall here in Lewiston. It was great to wake up to 6 inches of snow this morning and actually have it feel like winter. We just finished up our third week of training this week and had hoped to be racing this weekend but the weather didn't cooperate. While there was enough snow on the race hill at Sunday River there was not enough open terrain to close it. None the less it was a great week of training and we look forward to finally getting some racing in this coming weekend.

In other news, assistant coach Dan Loman spent this past week at Beaver Creek forerunning the Birds of Prey downhill. It was a great opportunity for him to ski one of the toughest downhills in the world as well as watch the best skiers in the world. As you can see from the photo of Dan signing autographs, everyone involved in the race becomes a bit of a celebrity.
