We're All Smiles Now

 It snowed in Anchorage last week. Looks to me like around six inches at Kincaid Park. (The Ski Club says eight inches.) The forecast for this coming week is stable weather with temperatures staying below 0 degrees C.  So I guess the ski season has begun here in Anchorage! We're pretty happy about it. Rollerskiing was getting kind of old, especially as the roads and paved trails were starting to get icy.

Meanwhile, the alpine team loaded up the trucks and rolled out of town yesterday morning, headed for their annual early-season training camp in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory. They'll be there for the next three weeks, getting good quality slalom and giant slalom training every day at Mt Sima.
