As always, thanks to the Tahoe Backcountry Ski Patrol, for providing first aid services throughout the race,
and sweeping the race--ensuring we don't have to search for a lost TGSR skier. :(
Two skiers prepare for the race. Who they are, we don't know.
...if we could only see their bib number...(grrrrr)
Mr. Cowbell...
...and Mrs. Cowbell show their support--cheering racers on.
Hmmmmm, seem to have been lots more cowbells this year; wonderin', is this becoming a standard for
TGSR's finish? Sure saves on vocal cords!
Mmmmm..yum! Another celebrant, toning up her biceps.
Mr. Rainbow. Only one team member wears a greater combination of colors--who might that be?
Oooooohh...man! You KNOW what I like!
Lisa's Market brought some deeeelishus apples!
(..and they juggle nicely, too...)
Mister gee-tar player. Thanks for great tunes!
..and band vocalists. Loved yer singin'!
...and the whole bunch. I mean group. Er...band.
