The trail was melting out from under them as they skied, but they persevered anyway!
An (almost) daily look at our lives in a small town in the Western Foothills of Maine.

KVAC Championship Pursuit @ Black Mountain
He placed 5th yesterday in the freestyle event, lost some ground in the classical race today, but still ended up in the top 10, tying for 8th place! Younger brother worked harder than he usually does in the classic, (It's not his favorite event.) which made me very proud. He finished the freestyle yesterday in 38th place (Good enough to qualify to race in the State Meet!) and only dropped 2 places to 40th today. That's some fast skiing!

Busy day @ Black Mountain!
The Sassi Memorial races were held at Black Mountain today. This year the girls were able to race in the Jr. 3k Classical.
They did such a great job and placed 13th & 17th against 46 girls! Once they crossed the finish line they hurried to the lodge and changed into Alpine equipment - it was time to ride up the mountain and ski down it...
and maybe jump a little bit too! Snow much fun!! (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)
The boys raced in the traditional Sassi Memorial 5k against a really competitive field of 195 other men.

It was a tough course, but they were fierce skiers and placed well - 30th & 123rd. It's awesome watching them push themselves to their limits and feel so good about their efforts!

"Just windy enough to keep the bugs down!"
The boys' Nordic meet at Black Mountain was cancelled today due to extremely cold temperatures and extremely windy conditions. That didn't keep the girls off the slopes though. They skied and skied and skied some more!
