CANADA

Like Maddy said, we couldn't have been more excited to ski on Sunday morning. It was so amazing to get back on snow and get all the kinks worked out from those 8 months (or 5 if you're Max) of not being on snow. Everyone seemed to have a permanent smile on their face as they skied around and around for a little over an hour. The skiing has been absolutely incredible. The first three days we were on a 2k loop, but luckily, we got about 10 inches of snow on Wednesday and Foret groomed out over 20k!
Not too bad for November!



Of course, Thanksgiving dinner was incredibly delicious. The girls joined in on Movember (see the photo below), we had a White Elephant with gifts including a stroll with Wade Rosko, a 30 minute back massage from Filly, a back scratcher (don't get Gracie started on it), a questionable Christmas tree, and a pair of size 13 cleats; the last two were both found in a Foret dumpster.


Happy Movember from that Bates Women's Team

Tomorrow we're doing a 5k/10k skate "mini-carnival" with all of the other teams that are up here. After that, we're heading back to Lewiston for a day to settle back into everything before classes start again on Monday. We have one week of classes, a week of finals, and then we're back on break in exactly two weeks!! A short amount of time to get a lot of work done, but we'll make it!

Happy skiers: Jane, Nate, Connor, and Hallie

We somehow fit 27 of us in here!


Happy Thanksgiving!

xoxo Sadie
