The Range is home to an old alpine slope that is unused nowadays. Dan Westover of the National Guard was kind enough to groom across the road and and nice GS-style run down the slope for us to use yesterday. Some of us built jumps in the non-groomed areas since the powder landing was deep and soft. THe BKL’ers, Juniors and many parents got to watch as the athletes took flight. Pretty cool.
The fun continues tomorrow (Thurs) when we join the BKL, Juniors and UVM ski team for some fun relays and perhaps some more jumping!

Amy Bruce was having fun (even though she looks a bit terrified here)
