If you're on the fence because your'e worried about the weather, don't be - we have tons and tons of snow in Vermont, and there is another storm forecast for midweek. This is going to be one awesome event!

As always, if you're interested in skiing at the SkiO world championships next year in Norway, the US Championship races for M/F-21 will be heavily considered in the Team selection process.
