June 24, 2010 (Bend, Oregon) – The Fire and Ice Ski Camp on the trails of Mt. Bachelor held from June 18-22 has come to an end and with it so has the last day of groomed skiing here in Bend. The warm sunny days of summer seem to making more than  a cameo appearance out here in the west.

A big crew from one of my old haunts, the big city streets of Salt Lake City, came out west for the camp. If you knew that some of the U.S.A.’s best up-and-coming Nordic skiers come from the downtown SLC West High School you too might be impressed.

Putting on the camp was a bit of work, but the skiers, young and old, were super stoked which made it all worth while.

Best,
