Heat wave forces skiers across border

By Ben Zimmerman | February 10, 2005

Though alpine events will remain at the Dartmouth Skiway in Lyme Center, N.H., a lack of snow combined with relatively warm temperatures has driven the cross-country portion of the Carnival to the Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe,Vt. The action at Stowe -- which doubles as UVM's home course -- kicks off on Friday with the men's 10-kilometer classical race at 10 a.m., followed by the women's five-kilometer classical an hour and a half later.

Steve Callahan '05 commented on his expectations for the 2004-2005 season along with the coaching change, saying, "We expected to have a strong season.
