Huge Props to the work being done by the Craftsbury Community! Amid hard working snow-makers we were able to get off a time trial on some cold snow this morning.  We're in good hands looking forward to the Eastern Cups next weekend! (Pictures of m...

It wasn't glamorous, but it was snow, and pretty good snow at that. The crew at Craftsbury has been working hard to prepare the trails for early season training and racing. They fired up the snow guns and got a little help from this week's snowfall: we...

 A wonderful morning to wake up!  After 48 hours of relaxing warm weather after camp, now there is snow to play on in the hills.  We took a jaunt up Mad River Glen this morning. Tomorrow and the next day we will be skiing at Craftsb...

We had a spectacular trip out West, and now we're back to kickin' it in New England. Vermont is not snowy yet, but with several inches forecast and the potential for snowmaking the next few nights, it looks like skiing will be in the cards sooner than ...

We've had quite the successful camp. At yesterday's award ceremony Heidi received two medals for one day of ski racing! She was the third junior in both races.Today we headed back out for one more day of racing, though only MK and I were going to jump ...

It was a good day on the trails up at Bohart today, with cold temperatures in the teens, sunny skies showing off the Bridger Range, and just enough snow to have ski races for the SuperTour weekend.The race format was a little quirky: a 1.5 kilometer sk...

It's been hard to find the time to take pictures these past few days, but we had an excellent wrap-up to our time in West Yellowstone, capped by a moonlight ski alongside the Madison River. We took the time to lie down in the snow and feel the world ar...

Today was our first true rest day of camp and we took a drive to the west to see some sights, do some animal hunting (spotting), and clear our heads from the grid of roads and trails of West Yellowstone.  Today was another beautiful day with a cle...

It was a beautiful day out here in West Yellowstone for a classic race.  Post race photo of GMVS past and present: Heidi, Devlin, Coach and Athlete Evan, Kristin (Williams), Ryley, and Peter (APU).I got out to the stadium early with skis and waxin...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We're thankful for so many things out here: great family support, great team dynamic, great skiing, great living situation... the list goes on!And the whipped cream on the pumpkin pie was that we got to add another memory t...

Today is our third day at altitude, and we celebrated with some threshold intervals around a loop away from today's sprint races. Alum Kristin Halvorsen and UNH skier Elizabeth Guiney joined us for the workout. It was great to have them along.&nbs...

Welcome to the Wild West!We showed up in Big Sky country on Sunday night and woke up to beautiful blue skies and snow in Bozeman, Montana. Our minivan took a stone to the windshield roughly four minutes into our trip from the airport and we used t...

It's been a quiet week here in Waitsfield and we are getting rested and prepared for our big fall trip to West Yellowstone and Bozeman.  Today we are headed to Rutland to run our final 3k of the fall with the Rutland XC Team and have a team dinner...

"Why are we still rollerskiing?" Dev seems to ask as he cruises by me on Rt. 17 with a Budweiser can stuck on his road tip. It's a pretty good question: here it is November 15th and the promise of an early winter seems to be fading with every successiv...

GMVS coaches are helping out the local, Mad River BKL Club, and getting the kids motivated for the upcoming season.  This week the young skiers met up for two practices, one at Mad River Glen and one at GMVS.  Both involved a little adventure...
