Action kicked off Satruday with the classical style technique with athletes ranging from 5 to 60+ years old testing their strength on the challenging Kamview courses. Serious racers from the National Development Centre, Big Thunder and Lappe Nordic Ski Clubs rubbed elbows with recreational racers and members of the Kamview Jackrabbit ski league in a celebration of community and athletics. There were also a handful of skiers from the US. Action continues Sunday with the mass start freestyle races.
