A Glimpse Into The Future

While we were low on coaches due to illness and injury, we weren't low on racing talent. This weekend Baldy's own Silken Rauhala was on home turf training with the Ks and Nancy Greene racers. Silken grew up in our Nancy Greene program before moving on to K with Apex and into FIS with Big White. We had some challenging slalom courses set up that not only tested our young racers but gave Silken a good round of training before heading off to the Canada Winter Games in Halifax. It was great for our rising stars to see how far they could reach in a few years. So far this year Silken has trained in Germany and Panorama. She's raced slalom and GS at Lake Louise and Nakiska and she recently raced super G and downhill at Apex. Her coach Derek from Big White was kind enough to give her the weekend off to train with us.
