Hope

This is team-bonding weekend for the UAA Ski Team.  We all (alpine and nordic) drove an hour south of town for a hike up Point Hope on the south side of Turnagain Arm, after which most of the team stayed overnight for camping beside Sixmile Creek.

Racing the train down the highway.

Do you think the coach is fired up for this season?
