GateCrashers - Waterville Valley: Gatecrashers, now in it's 9th year, is back to training on Mondays and Wednesdays. Monday's format will be GS and it will be a coached practice. The practice will run from 10:00 AM to Noon and as in the past will be on a variety of trails. We make sure to keep you posted via email on what trail the practice will be on as well as any schedule information and Après training recaps. Wednesday is a bonus day for us this year and will offer a combination of training opportunities. We may run drills on one day, set SL with a coach on another day, perhaps a bit of both, and all to be followed up with timed runs through the NASTAR course at noon. As in the past, Gatecrasher participants can run the Wednesday NASTAR course with no additional charge. The price for the season pass with Gatecrashers is $125 and the daily rate is $20 (lift ticket extra). Training should get under way in December so don't hesitate.
