A Day at the Races: The 2016 Audi FIS World Cup

by Wendy Clinch | Nov 29, 2016 | General skiing, Women's Skiing | 0 |

I think my ears are ringing. It’s no surprise, since it’s just two days after the 2016 Audi FIS World Cup at Killington Mountain Resort, and I think every cow bell on the planet was there. And why not? This was the best of the best in ski racing, only half an hour from home. How could I not attend? This was the first World Cup Alpine race in New England since 1991 (Waterville Valley, NH), and the first in Vermont since 1978 (Stratton Mountain). And oh yeah, it was the first World Cup I’d ever attended, too.
