New Years Camp!

Wow! We're not even 24 hours into the New Years Camp and it's been amazing!

Due to illness we only had three athletes come up on New Years Eve, we're expecting more in the coming days but for now this is what we have!

They arrived late afternoon and we all went out to the premier Mexican Food Restaurant in Leadville, Casa Blanca. After a wonderful meal we then went for the most amazing moonlight ski I have ever done. First it was on the Blue Moon on New Years Eve but mostly it was just truly beautiful with the mountains across the valley and the incredible moon shadows. We were planning for 30ish minutes and went for 1.5hours! What a great way to celebrate the new year!

We woke up this morning and found the first stage of the Tour de Ski streaming live and watched that while we ate breakfast. Go Majdic and Northug!

After breakfast we did a great classic hill climb time-trial. It was a wonderful course and everyone had a fantastic time. We videoed in 3 places, for technique work, so we'll have those up on our YouTube Channel soon, youtube.com/uwski . We're now getting ready for lunch, video analysis and some afternoon yoga and swimming. We may go out for another ski this evening, just to take advantage of the amazing moon!

Come on up and join us!
