Trail Work

FasterSkierJune 15, 2010

I’m fortunate this summer to be working with the Methow Valley Junior Nordic Team as summer head coach. It’s been a great way to stay involved with the program that developed Brian Gregg, Sadie and Erik Bjornsen, me and many other top skiers throughout the years. Last week was our first full week of coached training and for Saturday’s workout we all showed up at the McCabe Trails at the high school to help Dalton DuLac clear deadfall and limbed portions of trailside trees. Word just got out that the Methow will host another SuperTour next winter – we’ll make sure the trails are ready!br /br /Here are a few pictures from the morning of work with the juniors:br /br /div style=”text-align: center;”a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/TBfRvCYbeNI/AAAAAAAAAbc/jxAgYjXq6oI/s1600/June+10+Lucky+Jim+%2B+Trail+work+015.jpg”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;” src=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/TBfRvCYbeNI/AAAAAAAAAbc/jxAgYjXq6oI/s320/June+10+Lucky+Jim+%2B+Trail+work+015.jpg” alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5483081677370259666″ border=”0″ //aspan style=”font-style: italic;”Sage adopting a power stance as she wrestles with some barbed wire/spanbr /br /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/TBfRvCYbeNI/AAAAAAAAAbc/jxAgYjXq6oI/s1600/June+10+Lucky+Jim+%2B+Trail+work+015.jpg”span style=”font-style: italic;”/span/a/divbr /div style=”text-align: center;”a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/TBfQ6iPG-eI/AAAAAAAAAbU/IQOes8b0ZpQ/s1600/June+10+Lucky+Jim+%2B+Trail+work+014.jpg”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;” src=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/TBfQ6iPG-eI/AAAAAAAAAbU/IQOes8b0ZpQ/s320/June+10+Lucky+Jim+%2B+Trail+work+014.jpg” alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5483080775388035554″ border=”0″ //aspan style=”font-style: italic;”Dalton and I discuss chainsawing tactics/spanbr //divbr /br /div style=”text-align: center;”a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/TBfQZYoUvAI/AAAAAAAAAbM/KU8QGDU0Ty0/s1600/June+10+Lucky+Jim+%2B+Trail+work+012.jpg”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;” src=”http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/TBfQZYoUvAI/AAAAAAAAAbM/KU8QGDU0Ty0/s320/June+10+Lucky+Jim+%2B+Trail+work+012.jpg” alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5483080205873757186″ border=”0″ //aspan style=”font-style: italic;”Marc getting in that good torsional rotation while Gareth laughs at all the puny logsbr //span/divdiv class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2910103639238326543-286622038347749265?l=methowolympicdevelopment.blogspot.com’ alt=” //div
