Impending Doom

This past weekend I photographed the 65th Annual Stowe Derby. For

those unfamiliar with the race, it starts atop Mt. Mansfield,

Vermont's highest peak, and ends in the center of Stowe. The course

starts with a 3 mile, 2000' vertical drop followed by 8 miles of cross

country skiing into town. The race must be completed on one single

pair of skis. Frequently, hilarity ensues as cross country racers try

to descend alpine ski trails.
