Skin and Ski- Loon Mountain

Had a great Saturday, January 5th, at Loon Mountain- where they once again held their Skin and Ski Race. Having participated in the race last year, I was excited to be invited back by a very welcoming and helpful Staff at Loon Mountain. The race went smoothly and I think that i can safetly say that as a whole the day was a success: from the race to the clinics.

The day was full of people eager to learn with the free demo equiptment provided by Village Ski and Sport. During the day I had a chance to meet telemark skiers of all levels; cross-overs, indermediate, advanced, and even a handful that had never skied at all!

I hope that this event, and ones similar to it, continue to run in the future, as it is a great way to pull telemark skiers from around New Hampshire together as well as get more skiers interested and aware of telemark skiing.
