The other day we skied at Lindley Park in the morning, then drove to Sun Valley by way of West Yellowstone. The first stop on the trip was a vantage point of Big Sky, which looked pretty triumphant at midday when we drove by.We stopped off at West brie...

Here are a few photos from last week's stay in Bozeman. We're actually in Sun Valley now, and found some awesome snow conditions up at Galena pass this afternoon. More pictures from that (and our epic hike to Pioneer Cabin two days ago) will follow. Fo...

We woke up to snow in the mountains, so we decided to shift our rollerski workout to a ski walking threshold workout at Mt. Ellen. The morning was super cold, and we started on bare ground looking just uphill at snow. Some of it was natural, but we wal...

Here is a picture to sum up the week and mood of the GMVS team for the past week.  Our new mascot, "Tiroler," pronounced, Tirol--E, is keeping the stoke up!  We had a solid week -- the recipe for the week included a Nationals Simulation: Clas...

The group pauses at the edge of the trail looking down over Switzerland.The skies were sunny for our second day up above 10,000 feet on the Stelvio Glacier. An inch or two of fresh snow made the skiing slow but we couldn't have asked for better conditi...

On the second week of camp we had a test with the Sud Tirol Team.  Skiers from throughout the region get together several times throughout the year and it's worked out nicely that they have visited Mals while we have been there the past three year...

Every year one of the highlights in the Italy trip is a long hike along a smuggler's route from Italy to Switzerland. After a legendary bad weather excursion two years ago, we have had pristine weather for the trek, which affords unbelievable views in ...

The groomer put down some fresh tracks for us and we skated in paradise at the Stelvio Glacier on Monday afternoon. We had mostly sunny skies and it was warm but not too warm for 3-4 loops of the switchback trails up at 10,000 feet.For half of the grou...

I have to run down to the Sportsplatz to play baseball with our gang and the biathlon team from Mals, so I am afraid that this post will be a photoblog more than anything, with an opportunity for you to fill in the blanks! What I can tell you quickly i...

We did a pretty sweet combo workout the other day, with an uphill ski followed by a gradually downhill run. The weather was fine and the spirits were high. The new pavement on one of our favorite routes was pristine, and everyone enjoyed it on the uphi...

Last week, Burke coach Kate Barton brought Peter Neal down to do a sprint simulation with us on the access road. Peter had arrived early to school and it was really fun having him join our gang for a tough  workout. David Sinclair was here and Kat...
