Pitztal, Austria Training Camp

We are currently half way through our camp here in Pitztal, Austria where we have enjoyed some great weather and snow. Although there isn't much snow, and lots of rocks at the top and bottom of the training sites, the snow on the course is amazing! Hard, grippy, snow with some icy patches has made for efficient yet challenging training. So far we have split our training time between the GS and Super G events. The technical girls have been in Solden training these last 5 days but have now joined us for the remainder of the camp in Pitztal. October training camps are always interesting and fun as the racing season nears. Virtually every World Cup team is training in either Pitztal or Solden and everyone is scouting out the other athletes, catching up with friends, and getting excited (and some nervous) for the upcoming races. I'm definitely getting excited! So far this camp I've trained with the Italian, Slovenian, and American women. It's been great to train with the best in the world, it keeps you honest. - K
