Some Snow at Jiminy

We went up check out the mountain this morning. There were some white lines coming down the mountain so that was a good sign. We are planning to get out there tomorrow for a slalom session to keep things rolling after Colorado. Hopefully the r-word holds off on Sunday so we can keep this snow they have been blasting.

Co Wrap Up



We had some early mornings where the sun came up over the course we were setting.



And some pretty late sessions as well, where we got to say goodbye to the sun as it left for the day. 





Max and I found a Kodak Moment.





Christoph, not impressed with my quick-camera-draw.

Geordie, those gates look fairly stable leaning against the fence there.  Nice work on being tall and getting them over the top there! 


Carson - happy dude.


 G.




Merritt and Sarah in lift line.  Long line?  There is sunshine, who cares?!?!?!




Annie, strutting the new jackets.



Jocelyn, we are going to Colorado??? OH!  Cool! 


Taking advantage of the Radio Flyers. 


Warmup for training. 



Hi Mom!





Waiting for the luggage vans (Home James).  Quite the luggage heap.



John - chillin', Katy... tough girl with an apple.


 Dylan and Christoph pontificate.



Victor does the heavy lifting.  Katy, still with the apple.






The Man.


Goodbye grand mountains!

Gobble Gobble

Yesterday we hit the snow and we couldn't have asked for a better day - sunshine, a great surface and lots of first time skiers to spectate and practice slalom around! We jumped right into some mini gs - our top secret ingredient and the athletes rose to the challenge.

After skiing some of us could be found lounging in Starbucks.

Happy Thanksgiving to all! We are headed out now for some slalom!

Off to Colorado

Yesterday we departed good old Williamstown around 1:00. We drove to New York City for a quick visit before taking off for Denver. All eyes were peeled in search of the Statue of Liberty but we didn't see her. I guess the French really should have made her a little taller.

The arrival to Denver was smooth - all people and all bags are accounted for. We are waking up to beautiful sunshine in this great state so it will be quite nice to get outside!

Jocelyn, Max and Annie here are lingering at the loading dock-getting ready for departure.
