Our next races after the holiday break are coming up in just over a week at Heavenly on Friday Jan. 
11 for the Viva Italia Cup SL races and on Sat-Sun Jan. 12-13 at Squaw Valley for the Bernard Cup 
SL/GS races. Both of these events include an overall trophy for the fastest man and women, using an 
age-handicap formula that allows racers of all ages a shot at these perpetual trophies.

We will be racing on the World Cup run at Heavenly, at the base of the California base. World Cup 
is a good SL hill that has been a popular venue for many years and Heavenly is always a gracious 
host to the masters. The race hill is reported to be in excellent condition with copious snowmaking 
thanks to the recent cold weather.

For the weekend, we shift to the north shore of Tahoe to Squaw Valley, racing SL on Saturday and GS 
on Sunday. Early season coverage on the lower mountain at Squaw has been thin, but we are expecting 
a good storm series over the coming weekend that should bring a good increase to the snowpack. The 
masters have been in close contact with the Squaw Race Department to monitor conditions and will 
continue to do so over the next few days.

Online registration is open on SkiRaceRegReg. Remember that the early registration deadline is 
Sunday evening 1/6; prices go up next week so get your entries in now! You have until the close of 
registration at 8pm Wednesday 1/9 to withdraw, so there's no penalty to signing up early. And while 
you're on SkiRaceReg, remember to sign up for the National Championships at Mammoth in March!!
