These stunning images from the Grafton, ND, USCC race last weekend, taken by excellent photographer Aaron Kennedy, illustrate the rugged beauty, drama and adventure of cross-country competition.
They perfectly capture why I love cross-country (and why many racers were foiled by slush/frozen goggles at Grafton!).

Cross country is great! It's the kind of riding I like, too.
Great gallery.

Love the pics with the skiers in the background, the gal stops to watch the race while the girlie-man trudges away. LOSER.

Is that a wolf in the second to last photo? Good stuff!

The fourth picture down looks like something in a movie, complete with eerie lighting and smoke machines.... As if Sno Pros didn't look mean already!
