I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We are off to a strong start at dryland practices and are looking forward to getting the team on snow this week. This week’s forecast is looking good. Mountain Creek is making snow, and hopefully we’ll see some accumulation tomorrow. Keep up the hard work; our first race will be here soon!
"Don't Just Ski. RACE!"
