Here is some information on tomorrow's trip north.

  • Since we did not race today and temps will be in the same range as we waxed for we will not be waxing skis tomorrow.

  • Families can leave when ever they would like for the Crystal Mountain/Frankfort Area depending on if we have school or not.

  • Coach Rob and I have a van for hauling gear and have room for several skiers north (we are staying north)---contact me and I will let you know where and when to meet tomorrow.

  • We will need everyone at Crystal Mountain at 8:45am on Friday, so we can inspect as soon as the courses are ready.

  • The race will be on Buck and you should park in the lot by the Buck lift.

  • The race will begin at 10:00am

  • Please be dressed and ready when you arrive--there is not going to be an inside area for getting dress.

  • We will have the tent and heater set up but would could use some of the small propane can (the little greens ones for running our heater). It would be nice to have a little help setting up and taking down the tent.

  • Lunch will be on your own, either a sack lunch or cafeteria. They do not allow outside food into the heated white tent.

  • The running order is listed on the Benzie Event Page (anyone not listed will be forerunning and needs to be to the top immediately after inspection or you will miss your chance to run the courses)

Gate Keepers: Chris Roy, Jen Kittredge and Chad Gaier

Course Maintenance: Kevin Schlett and Carrie Graveel

  • Workers let me know if you will need lift tickets

  • You will meet at the base of Buck for a quick meeting and to get your lift tickets at 9:15am

Please plan to stay for awards after the race. You can also stay and ski. Snow should be great!
