It was touch and go at the beginning of the season, but Mother Nature has been extra kind to the folks at Mt. Washington this year! After a disappointing 04/05 season, the area received more than enough snow in plenty of time to host a successful 2-day K2 GS race January 14 & 15. The weekend was dominated by Whistler Mountain Ski Club athletes Brynne Benbow and Alexander Binks, who took home Gold both days! PHOTOS COURTESY OF PAUL MORRISON (Whistler/Ski Racing Canada)
