The night relay format offered racers something new and introduced many folks to a sweet old-school community downhill place that now features "nordic nights". Be sure you check out Maple Ridge. folks in the Albany/Schenectady area need to know about this place!

With another championship narrowly missed, all eyes are focused on HURT's future ballers. Bring on the 2019 Bill Koch Festival! Gorgeous bluebird skiing on March 9th and fresh fluffy snow on March 10th made for some of the best weekend skiing all winter. And kids and parents from around the state were treated to another new area venue. Brookhaven Golf Club and The Town of Greenfield have been working hard to make their town park a real nordic destination and these two days of skiing have a LOT of people sold on and excited about the future of this venue.
Here are a few of the many pics from the weekend! Stumble over to the social media land for the full scene.

Winter is going strong and the snowpack will make for great skiing for the next month. We may not have any events left on the calendar but skiing in the near future looks bright and the future of skiing in our area looks even brighter.
