Getting Settled

Written by Garrott on November 3rd, 2009

Another beautiful day in Silver Star.  Matt & I are out of the hostel and living with Marshall Greene, my old Middlebury teammate, & Brayton Osgood of the XC Oregon team, in a little condo.  After a lot of planning and travel, it’s great to be in one place for a while.

We skied classic at Sovereign Lake this morning on Toko red.  Could’ve used a little binder to keep the wax on longer, but, if that’s my only complaint, I really can’t complain.  Conditions are better at Sovereign now than they were in December last year and we enjoyed a few loops ripping around the World Cup trails.

Today is also Marshall’s Birthday.  Not a bad way to celebrate!

    Looks sweet Garrott. Nice pics. Are they cat grooming yet? Good luck this season.

    The cork? I think it’s for recapping your bottle when you misplace the other one.

    Thanks for the pics, Garrott. Very inspirational. Matt looks lean and mean, tell him to keep eating the veggies.
