4th Annual Northfield Mountain 5-Mile Snowshoe Race
Hallockville Pond / Moody Spring Version
February 4th, 2006  Dubuque State Forest, Hawley, MA

Good friend DD was on the books for organizing his Northfield event, which would also be one of a few U.S.S.S.A National Championship Qualifiers.  There was no snow at Northfield Mountain, and the trails were closed.

We offered up a move to Hawley, and pulled a decent course and event together in roughly two-days.  Folks were able to qualify for the upcoming National Championship in Vermont, and we had fun.

I went out very early to check the race course ribbons and markers with Tippi, completed it in about 1:15, and got back in time to race a 19th out of 69, finishing the official run in 53:49.
