Happy 2016 from BMA Nordic!



We returned to school on December 28th and despite mother nature's best effort we were graced with awesome early season conditions (until the last 24hrs--don't worry, its snowing again)!  We're mixing up our training between our campus loop, Kingdom Trails and Craftsbury Outdoor Center and we are grateful for every KM we have logged this wild Winter.  Since November we've skied in everything from 21 below to 50 above, but we've skied, and thats what matters.  As a team we have made massive gains this year and I am looking forward to seeing that hard work continue to pay off.

 Next up is the Maine Eastern Cup at Quarry Rd. in Waterville Maine.  We're excited to check out what will be a new venue for many and toe the line with the best of the best in New England.  Its hard not to get excited when we've been following US Nationals out in Houghton and the Tour de Ski.   A major congratulations goes out to all of the US Ski Team for their inspiring performances and especially to our own Burke graduates Liz Stephen and Ida Sargent who continue to energize and inspirit all of us back home!

Here a bunch of photos of the crew from the last 2+ weeks of training.  Enjoy!
