So you think altitude training at Grand Canyon is the best way to be preparing for Vasaloppet??
Actually I donĀ“t think snow conditions would be very different from Sweden right now ;)
Preparations for Vasaloppet haven't been all that great in Karlstad, so I might as well try altitude :-)
I did KortVasan today (the last 30 KM for you that is) and can at least verify that there was snow all the way - a bit 'slushy' in quite a few places (+5C) but over all surprisingly good.
