World Telemark Championships ,05 We were lucky enough to have time off at the same time Neil was racing in Norway--so we had to go and do some skiing ourselves!

We rented a car and drove north from Oslo towards Beitostolen. About 230Ks. Beitostolen--small older house notice the slate roof. Nancy ski touring up above Beitistolen. Over 1500Ks of trails and tracks. Nancy---lovin the sunshine and the snow! This is the ski areas where Neil raced. Above is open with x-c ski trails. Look at those great tracks! Skiing was out of this world! No one was skating except for the Americans. Every one waxes their skis. Christian, Lexie, Neil and myself. Enjoy a day of sun and great track skiing. Lexie post-holing!
