A fun weekend of ski flying

By Janice Wood · March 1, 2010 ·

Reader Blake Hermel sent us some photos of a gathering this weekend of a group of ski pilots from Mankato, Minn., who got together to “put on some mileage.”

“We headed for Hayward, Wis., to see the American Birkebeiner cross-country ski race, and followed it up by spending Sunday flying around the Mankato area,” he said. “I think Sunday was the best day of ski flying I have ever had.”

We hope you enjoy his photos as much as we did!
