Ross Williams won his first senior men's race of the year at the Garland Glide, while Natalie Dawson picked up her second victory of the weekend, having won the Garland Gripper the day before.
Williams finished the 19.8 Km, two-lap course in 1:08:32, 36 seconds ahead of second place finisher Cliff Onthank (1:09:08). Six seconds behind Onthank was John Gravlin, in 1:09:14.
Dawson won in 38:48 in the 9.9 Km senior women's division, and had the second fast time of the day, beaten only by the junior male champion, Brendan Baic. Susan Vigland came in second in 40:18, with Tracy Hardin another 31 seconds behind in 40:49 for third.
Cliff Onthank heads into the finish in 2nd place overall
Kaitlyn Patterson notched another victory in her belt this season as the overall junior female winner with a time of 42:19. Katie Todd, Hannah Rickard, Maria Frick and Kayla Keenan were the top J3, J2, J1, and JO finishers.
Brendan Baic also added another victory to his list by having the fastest time of the day in the 9.9 Km race, finishing in 35:35. Andrew Bruning, Evan Cover, Alex Lance, and James Padden topped the J3, J2, J1, and JO junior male divisions.
The race, with only 60 feet of climbing per lap, offered little in the way of a downhill to catch your breath. Most racers were redlined most of the way. With 4-6 inches of new packed snow - and more falling, conditions were soft, and softer still for the second lap of the senior men's race. Racers who were light on their feet had the advantage.
John Gravlin (110) and Todd Vigland (140) sprint for third place.

Temperatures were still cold, not quite as cold as Saturday's Garland Gripper, but still in the high single-digits and maybe low teens. The course was a bit longer than in previous years, passing through new sections of wood trail.
Lunch: spaghetti, salad, garlic bread, brownies - and lots of giveaways including multiple overnight stays in Garland's beautiful lodge and tickets to the Garland Gourmet Glide.
