Happy New Year everyone.I am resolving to create more ski content. To be quite honest I am in preparation for my ski trip to Whitefish and the 2018 bike racing season. This means instead of grabbing my laptop when I get home or awake in the morning it means I jump on my bike-trainer setup and produce power. Anyway on this first day of 2018 I present to you the Skiing ABCs M!
The Skiing ABCs M — Monarch
I found the pitches to be steeper and more sustained to what I was used to and the runs were wide. Best of all they were generally unpopulated with other skiers. I had a bad time the first day due to poor nutrition but the second day was great but the legs were feeling at the end of the day.
Monarch also features more vertical than what I was used to, but not all that much more. Monarch starts up way high and at the top of the resort you are above the treeline with the majestic views one expects when they are on top of a mountain. Best of all Monarch photos I feature on this site and on facebook are MINE.
The Skiing ABCs M — Mogul
Do you have any tips or pointers to share with respect to mastering moguls?
The Skiing ABCs M — MCL
The MCL is an acronym for Medial Collateral Ligament ACL’s partner. While it is very possible to injure the MCL while skiing, MCL injuries seem to more rare and less serious than ACL injuries.
The Skiing ABCs M — Mahre
Phil and Steve Mahre are twins who were on the US SKi team through the 70s and the 80s. Phil won a number of Olympic medals and won the 1982 overall cup in FIS world cup ski race series.
Phil’s twin Also won Olympic medals but was not as dominant as his brother.
The Skiing ABCs M — Montana
The biggest ski resorts in Montana are Big Sky and Whitefish. However, there are other ones too, such as the famous Bridger Bowl, there is Blacktail, there is also Red Lodge. I have skied Whitefish and visited Bridger Bowl.
Have you ever skied in Montana, where and when — please share!
