After a bit of a hiatus from this site, I’m back and ready to kick off the ’09-’10 season! I’m writing from West Yellowstone, MT where the snow continues to pile up after a major storm that rolled through earlier this week. Almost all of the Rendezvous trails are open now and the race skis are on the verge of jumping out of the ski bag. When I first arrived on Wednesday with my buddy Kevin Patzoldt, who will soon leave for IBU (biathlon) world cup, there was essentially no snow—the plateau had next to nothing. Now, needless to say, the ski season has started.
