Here it comes, folks, a little earlier than expected or wanted. Usually we have all season to get ready for this beat down but this year it may be the first race of the season for many folks. We are all in the same boat so bring it on!
I believe it was moved up in order to use a big event as part of the selection process for athletes wanting to compete in the Skimo World Championships in Italy February 18-26. A second race the following day at Grand Targhee will serve as another qualifier as will the COSMIC event at Sunlight Resort in Glenwood Springs, Colorado the following weekend.
Registration for the Jackson event is by pre registration only. Sign up now or miss out on the pain! The course this year will guarantee plenty of that with better conditions than the boiler plate seen last spring.
See you there. - Brian
