Good morning,
Thanks to all the folks that attended our Toko Wax seminar with Randy Beckner. It was great to see you all at the shop and share stories of great early season skiing.
Mac Pass is groomed and ready to go this morning with new snow! Temps are in the high 20's, RH 97% and winds light. Try out Swix LF7(efficiency) CH7(economy) or Toko LF Red(efficiency) S3 Red(economy) for the best glide for your weekend adventures and training.
Toko Ski Wax Clinic with Randy Beckner
The Base Camp is always available to offer assistance and supplies for all your ski tuning needs. We offer a full array of wax products, brushes and preparation accessories from Swix and Toko. We also offer edge tuning accessories and waxing tables so that you can put your own personal touch on your skis. And don't forget our full service tuning department. Stop down to the shop and learn about ski grinding options to freshen your older bases or prepare for the racing season!
Think Snow!
Master skiers
We will not have the weekly spenst at Carroll hill. If the golf course is groomed, we will have a headlamp ski around at 6pm. Just a chance to get on snow and ski together. If we have grooming and decent snow, we will have a 10am ski session at the golf course on Saturday. Let's hope for a few more inches.

We will have a spenst session at the Carroll hill at 6:10 on Thursday. We will be working on some longer intervals focusing on pacing. Hope to see ya there. ON Saturday, 9am at the Base Camp (weather pending) we will meet and car pool for roller skiing. We had a great session last week. If we have a group of people that are interested in learning to roller ski we can put together a shorter work out.
