17 Photos to Close out 2017, from Caitlin

We’re only a few days into 2018, so to wrap up 2017, here are 17 photos. They offer a glimpse of what the ski team, and I personally, have seen and done from November through the end of the year.

Vibrant sunsets over the sea of clouds… incredible afternoons in Silverstar, BC! We spent a week of early December in Silverstar, which was beautiful and snowy and excellent for racing.

Team photo after the classic sprint in Silverstar, except that we were missing Adam Martin!

Night ski commuting through the winter storms at Craftsbury with Adam and others.

Backcountry skiing on Jay Peak with Sheldon, Ani, and Avery. I love adventures through the snowy trees! Perfect way to get out for some exercise while getting off the beaten track. Photo from Avery Ellis.
