Race Summary

The first night race, a family fun 10k event, was added to the events of the week.

The Internation Village was created in Minong. Most international skiers stayed at the “Village” and were delighted with the accommodations.

At 6 a.m. on race morning the temperature was -22F, but the day warmed to the low 20’s and snow fell for the early part of the race.
